Blue Waters secured three points against a newly formed Black Africa team on Saturday.

Both teams failed to find their groove in the first half, and the wind played a major role in the flow of the game.

The coastal team had the first chance in the game, with Enrico Hoebeb blasting wide in the 15th minute of the game.

Black Africa also had a chance to test Calvin Spigiel in goal, but balls fired by George /Goagoseb went wide of the target.

Blue Waters received a free-kick that almost broke the deadlock in the 35th minute of the game, but Gregory Aukumeb could only find the crossbar.

Blue Waters got closer and closer with a mid-air volley from Hidulika Chepavali saved by Donavan Gainub in goal. Both teams showed an attacking formation.

Just before the half-time whistle, referee, Naftal Gideon ruled out a possible handball in the Black Africa goalkeeper's box, which could've been a chance for Blue Waters to capitalise.

Aukumeb continued to cause problems for the defenders by dribbling through players, but he could not find the back of the net.

Johannes Nambuli managed to scramble a corner fired in by Tuhafeni David and take the lead for the Blue Waters team in the 70th minute of the game.

Nambuli again tested the Black African defence line and managed to get a shot, which hit the crossbar.
