Relegation woes plague Cosmos

Jomo Cosmos have found themselves rooted at the bottom of the log after a goalless draw against Wits.

Johannesburg - The old adage “too soon to panic” may not be appropriate for struggling Jomo Cosmos despite a grim, goalless draw with Bidvest Wits in Daveyton on Wednesday night.

With other lowly teams in the Premier League - Golden Arrows (against Kaizer Chiefs) and AmaZulu (against Ajax Cape Town) - gaining stunning victories against two of the top sides, Cosmos now find themselves firmly rooted to the bottom position in the log table.

And the spectre of a nightmarish third relegation in five seasons will surely be haunting Jomo Sono's team, who are now the only side in the Premier League without a victory.

After scoring a mere three goals from their seven matches, in which they were beaten four times and drew on the three other occasions, Cosmos would appear to have a crisis on their hands.

And there was little joy from the dour draw with Wits that had the handful of spectators threatening to take an early nap.

It was a relative night off for respective goalkeepers Energy Murambadoro (Wits) and Avril Phali (Cosmos), who each had only two saves of any note to make throughout the 90 minutes.

The game was further marred by a succession of free kicks and robust play during which Cosmos had three players booked and Wits had one player shown a yellow card.

Wits remain in a mid-table ninth position and would have been content with the away point in difficult conditions. - Sapa
