South Africa’<\/strong>s u16A boys’ hockey team produced a commanding display to end the Allistar Fredericks African Challenge<\/strong> with a 5-1 win over Zimbabwe<\/strong>\u2019s u18A side on Friday, at St David\u2019s Marist Inanda<\/strong>, in Sandton.<\/p>\n

The hosts wasted no time in taking control of the clash, dominating from the first whistle.<\/p>\n

Blaine Candy<\/strong> got the scoreboard moving, netting two brilliant goals in quick succession to give South Africa the early lead and ignite the home crowd.<\/p>\n

South Africa’s blistering start continued when Dante Elkington<\/strong> struck, followed by Kade Lottering<\/strong>, which made it 4-0 before the end of the first chukka.<\/p>\n

The visitors regrouped in the second chukka. They were more composed and tightened their defensive shape, and they were rewarded when Dean Muzengeza<\/strong> pulled a goal back to make it 4-1.<\/p>\n

The third chukka was end-to-end, with both sides creating opportunities but failing to finish, thanks to disciplined defending and sharp goalkeeping.<\/p>\n

Luc Boyall<\/strong> rounded off the scoring in the fourth chukka, slotting South Africa’s fifth to put the cherry on the top of an impressive performance by the home team.<\/p>\n
