Triangle………………………………………(0)2MOTOR Action coach Joey Antipas has admitted that they now need a miracle to survive relegation as his team stretched their winless run to 10 successive games after falling to Triangle in a Castle Lager Premiership tie at Motor Action Sports Club yesterday.
The Mighty Bulls remained stuck at the bottom of the log with 14 points. They last won a league match on May 18, when they beat Shabanie 2-1.
Motor Action, who were also hit by an exodus of seasoned players acquired young players from the Aces Youth Academy during the mid-season transfer window.
But it appears the project may take long to reap fruits and save the team from the chop. The youthful players, who impressed everyone in the last league match against Dynamos, yesterday put on a lifeless show and were barely recognisable as the side that had stretched the champions.
Actually, it was Triangle who showed serious intention of avoiding the chop. With yesterday’s victory, Gishon Ntini’s men have now won five out of their last seven games.
Striker Misheck Mburayi, who was with Motor Action during the first half of the season, returned to haunt his former team with a 64th minute goal.
Mburayi was fed by Pasca Manhanga and made a mockery of the hosts defence. The visitors were not finished. Mburayi, who had scored four goals for Motor Action before his departure earned a penalty when he was amateurishly pulled in the box by Collen Kwaramba in the 89th minute.
