Abdeslam Ouaddou won 3-1 in CAF Champions League qualifying. He still walked off angry. Orlando Pirates should have buried La Cure Waves. Instead, after leading 3-1 at half-time, the tempo died and the tricks started. “The rhythm dropped when we stopped being serious, and we started showboating,” said Ouaddou after
Miguel Cardoso did not hide his anger after Mamelodi Sundowns were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw Betway Premiership with Chippa United at Buffalo City Stadium on Saturday evening. Antonio van Wyk scored with the last kick of the game, but the Sundowns coach spent his post-match comments on
Kaizer Chiefs coach Fernando Da Cruz again pointed to costly errors after his side were held by Polokwane City on Saturday — but he didn’t pin the result on Brandon Petersen.

Kaizer Chiefs coach Fernando Da Cruz has shaken up the side that edged Siwelele FC 3-2 last weekend — and striker Wandile Duba has been left out of the matchday squad. Amakhosi escaped with all three points, but Da Cruz was far from impressed with the performance. For Saturday’s trip
Four regional associations have allegedly been barred from Saturday’s South African Football Association elective congress, slashing the regional voting bloc from 52 to 48 as incumbent president Danny Jordaan faces businessman Sandile Zungu for control of the country’s football body.

Gopolang Taunyana believes Stellenbosch FC can take confidence from their last home display when they host Sekhukhune United at Athlone Stadium on Friday night. The Maroons face Babina Noko in the Betway Premiership after a 3-1 win over Marumo Gallants in their previous home game. “Preparations have been good,” Taunyana
Dillan Solomons has told Kaizer Chiefs not to get comfortable after a strong opening to the 2025/26 Betway Premiership. Amakhosi are unbeaten after five league games — three wins, two draws — and sit just behind Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates. It looks familiar. Last season they also won four
