Nedbank Cup: ‘War between Chiefs & Stellies like SA & Zimbabwe! Pirates to cruise over small boys’

Published on by

The Nedbank Cup’s Round of 13 draw was conducted on Friday, with some exciting fixtures on the table.

The defending champions Kaizer Chiefs have a masive task against Stellenbosch who knocked them out of the Carling Knockout earlier in the season. Another game will be between Golden Arrows and Orbit College while TS Galaxy will be up against Marumo Gallants.

Last season’s finalists Orlando Pirates have a seemingly easy task against Tshakuma Tsha Mazivhandila.

Here are the reactions from Mzansi as sampled by Afrik-Foot.
