Gaborone United climbed to the summit of the 2025-26 Botswana Premier League with a solid 2-0 victory over Police XI at GU Stadium on 13 September. In a tightly contested match, United broke the deadlock through Lebogang Ditsele midway through the second half, and added a second goal later to kill off any comeback hopes. The hosts displayed patience and composure, resisting pressure from Police XI, especially in the early stages, before asserting control after the opening goal.

With this win, United not only picked up three valuable points but also displaced Jwaneng Galaxy from the top of the table. The shift in the standings underscores the competitive balance this season, where every match counts. For Police XI, the result represented a missed opportunity to rise in the table; while they had moments, they could not match United’s intensity or finish.

Looking ahead, Gaborone United will aim to maintain this momentum and defend the top spot, especially as fixtures grow tougher. Their attacking options and solid defensive execution will be tested, and consistency will be key. Police XI, meanwhile, must regroup: improve possession transitions, sharpen finishing, and perhaps address defensive lapses if they hope to bounce back.
