TTM kept hope alive of winning the Nedbank with a courageous and sensational come from behind victory against SuperSport United in Thohoyandou, Limpopo.

TTM very confident of upsetting Supersport United in Nedbank Cup quarterfinal in Thohoyandou
TTM striker Rhulani Manzini is remarkably confident about their chances of upsetting SuperSport United in the first Nedbank Cup quarterfinal tonight.
As reported by Sports Brief, the match will take place tonight at the traditionally intimidating Thohoyandou Stadium, and with fans now allowed back into stadiums, should see a buzzing atmosphere.
It is an intriguing battle between GladAfrica Championship side TTM and a depleted SuperSport, who are short on attacking options.
