Stellenbosch advance to Carling Knockout next round with win over ...
Defending champions Stellenbosch became the first team to advance to the next round of the Carling Knockout Cup after a hard-fought 2-1 win over AmaZulu at King Zwelithini Stadium in Durban on Friday.
The two teams could not be separated on 1-1 after 90 minutes after Stellenbosch opened the scoring through Devin Titus in the 24th minute and Tshepang Moremi equalised after 53 minutes.
This forced this last-16 match into 30 minutes extra-time where Stellies attacker Andre de Jong found himself unmarked in the box after 97 minutes to head home a cross delivered from the right flank.
Action continues on Saturday afternoon with on-form Orlando Pirates hosting Magesi FC at Orlando Stadium and Royal AM visiting Cape Town City at Athlone Stadium, both matches at 3pm.
