‘Chiefs fans crying again as Muthi FC got easy team! These Nedbank Cup fixtures are cooked’

The Nedbank Round of 16 draw was conducted on Wednesday with teams learning their opponents.

Last season’s finalists, Orlando Pirates, landed an easier task against Casric Stars as Mamelodi Sundowns were paired with another top-tier outfit, TS Galaxy. Another interesting clash will be between Richards Bay and AmaZulu.

There will be a new champion after the elimination of Kaizer Chiefs by Stellenbosch, who will be up against Golden Arrows. Have a look at reactions by the fans as compiled by Afrik-Foot.

They are blaming Khoza

As a Pirates fan in the quater-finals we want a winner between Jacksa Spears and Vasco Da Gama – Sphesihle Shandu

Good draw, at least Casric Stars players will experience playing in a sold-out venue in their lifetime. The Rockets at Mbombela will deliver – Mor

Chiefs fans are crying again. They were given Milford, and Milford dealt with them. I don’t understand the reason they are crying – The Masterchef 

 Amakhosi will be supporting any team playing against Pirates the whole tournament – Xolane Hadebe

All I know is that they are blaming Dr Irvin Khoza for a draw that was live on Television – Siyabonga Mavukela 

Who is fooling whom?

As long as small teams like Casric stars still advance to the next round, it gives teams like Pirates a chance to win the Nedbank Cup – Abby T Ssmk 

A lovely draw for us Buccaneers at least to avoid top-flight teams until the semi or final – Siyamamkela Sya Menie

So who is fooling whom? Defending champions are already out of the tournament for the first game, and they still say they won the Nedbank Cup fairly? – Nthuse

Another easy team for Muthi FC. Why didn’t they get a PSL team? These are cooked fixtures – Goitsimodimo Pholoholo 

Of course chairman’s team had to get a Championship side, shameless club – Lesego Z. Flayme
