Soccer feast as residences tackle each other

Another one bites the dust: Molefe Mohlala of Forest Hill goes to ground as he's tackled by Dlamini Asanda of Kopano. Kopano, eventual runners-up, won the quarterfinal match by 5-4 on penalties after the teams were tied 1-1 at the end of extra time.

The parade of loyal supporters that trekked to the L'Oréal UCT Inter-Res Soccer Tournament in early October were spoilt for choice - 13 teams cramming more than 20 games into just three days.

In the end, it was University House that negotiated the exhausting round-robin and knockout stages best, outgunning Kopano by 4-1 in the final.

Top of the world: University House celebrate their win in style.

No surprise, too, that it was a University House player that topped the goalscoring charts, Thozamile Nyiki hitting the back of the net six times.

It wasn't all work, though. The players could find relief for their sun-baked faces - summer paid a brief visit - at a L'Oréal station where company representatives introduced them to the latest and best in men's grooming products.
