Bay United will play against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Telkom Knockout Cup this weekend. Sundowns coach, Trott Moloto, who is also under pressure like “Mushini Wami” (Kaizer Chiefs coach) will be eating his breakfast, lunch and supper easily vandag after his team won 3-0 last night against Amazulu in the Absa Premier League.However, the BIG challenge will be the Telkom Knockout Cup: This is going to be interesting; The Brazilians want to erase the 4-2 score conceded against on form Golden Arrows. Sundowns also want o make up for the MTN8 “WAFA _WAFA” Cup that slipped through their fingers.
United proved to be a surprise package at times, and United beat struggling Orlando Pirates and left every one stunned. This is football and it is a cup game, as I said earlier - team put lot of effort in cup games, don't be surprised by the score line after the game.
Moloto is smiling after the news that Lerato Shabangu recovered well from the injury, this is good for the team and for the young man. United can surprise many but I believe they play Sundowns at the wrong time, SUNDOWNS wants to make up for the MTN 8 loss to Amakhosi, but as I said this is football and it is round anyone can kick the ball at the back of the net.
The Brazilians’ win against Amazulu last night was just a warm-up as everyone ePretoria is just wanting for the Telkom Knockout Cup game. Well I guess we just have to wait and see, even David defeated Goliath. Hehehe. Not saying United is Goliath and Sundowns is David, not even visa versa.
Facing reality United are in for a high jump, while Sundowns are in for a long jump, you can work out whose chances of winning are better.
May the strikers score goals please!!!!
AYOBA - the one and only.....
