[…wnanaanza tena huku Mahmoud Abbas, anaupiga katikata ya kiwanja anauchukua tena pale Mulamba anampiga chenga hapa Kala Rokali, Rokali anakwenda pale kupiga pale krosi moja pale mbele kumtafuta JJ Masiga, JJ Masiga…..GOOOOOOOOOAAL!
Tunapata bao la kwanza msikilizaji! Kama nlivyokwambia, leo ni leo anyesema kesho muongo! Tunapata bao la kwanza manake baada ya krosi moja kupigwa na Mulamba na kaipata vizuri JJ Masiga, aliamua kwenda yeye mwenyewe na akawapiga chenga wote pale na difensi nzima! Manake wale walinzi na akawapiga chenga na akamtazama vizuri goalkeeper kule Mparusa na akapiga manake kwenye kamba kule kwa hivyo na kuzigusa kamba hizo na kwa hivyo inakuwa ni bao la kwanza katika michuwano wa leo!…]
[...and the action continues! Mahmoud Abbas cuts through the midfield, takes control, Mulamba with the ball now—dribbles past Kala Rokali! Rokali surges forward, delivers a CROSS into the box… searching for JJ Masiga… JJ Masiga… GOOOOOOOOOOAL!

We have the first goal listeners ! Just as I told you—today is the day, forget about tomorrow! The first goal comes after a perfect cross from Mulamba, met brilliantly by JJ Masiga! He decided to take matters into his own hands—dribbled past the entire defense, left them in his wake! The defenders scrambled, but he danced through them, locked eyes with the goalkeeper Mparusa… and bang! Off the post and in! That’s the first goal of today’s match!...]
