Match Report	Panorama missed a chance to increase the gap with the second by losing 2-0 against Randburg.  With once again a lot of players missing for different reasons, Olgiati was forced to start an emergency 4-5-1 with the returning Mushore in goals, and with the returning Brown up front. Smith, also returning, started in an unusufal midfield trio with Goncalves and Egbers. Panorama had by far the strongest start , and within 10 minutes they had 2 good one-on-ones with Brown who was unlucky in failing to convert them. The game was under control until Mushore was injured by a Randburg player and Egbers got sin-binned. Randburg then started to push more but Panorama held until the last minute of the first half when Randburg managed to score from a tight corner. With heavy legs, lack of replacements on the bench, and trying to chase the game, Randburg scored early in the second half after a counter attack, and generall controlled the game, with Panorama getting close to score but most of the attempts were missed by a question of centimeteres. Overall Panorama played well for the first 20 minutes, and then tried to fight their way back in the second half, but wasn't enough to prevent a loss against a strong Randburg side. Some stats from the game: This was the 33rd game against Randburg, with Panorama winning 20 of them, but losing for the first time in 6 years (last time Randburg beat Panorama was in 2017) and after a 16 game unbeaten streak The last time Panorama failed to score was in April against Rush Benites played his 80th game for the team, moving him to 16th place in the overall table
