Telkom Knockout Cup results

Stars outsmart United
Free State Stars came from behind to beat Bay United 2-1 in the quarterfinal of the Telkom Knockout Cup at the Charles Mopeli stadium on Saturday.

While Stars were rescued by Saitjheni Tsotetsi who netted his second goal in two games and Jimmy Kauleza’s super strike, which ended the dreams of United playing in the semifinals.

Josephs almost sink Pirates
Amabhakabhaka displayed some dazzling diski when they destroyed Moroka Swallows 3-2 in the Telkom Knockout quarterfinal on Saturday at Olympia Park. Thulasizwe Mbuyane, Dikgang Mabalane and Gilbert Mushangazhike scored for Pirates, while Cecil Oerson and Elton Morelato netted for the Dube Birds. However, many Pirates fans won’t be happy to see Josephs as the last men when Bucs plays in the semis especially after his goalkeeping errors that give Swallows those two goals.

Katlego Mashego was the only player who scored on open play when he scored United’s penalty. Celtic eventually won the game on penalties after no goals were scored in extra time.
