War of words between legends

According to the reports, four legends connected to each club chirped each other at a media event hyping up the competition.

Former Sundowns captain Hlompho Kekana said:

"Sundowns will have a nice warm up before beating one of the Soweto teams in the final."

Stalwart Tshepo Masilela, currently on the books of Amazulu, fired back:

"Sundowns play many games per season, so AmaZulu will do them a favour by beating them in the first game so that they can go home and rest while we prove that Usuthu is the biggest club in the country."

Former Chiefs player Mandla Masango jabbed at Pirates:

"Chiefs is the most supported club in the country, and will prove that by beating Pirates early on the day to prove that this season they will win a title."

Ex-Orlando Pirates and popular SuperSport pundit Phumudzo Manenzhe responded:

"There's no ways Pirates can lose to 'Mangethe Ball'. Pirates are the strongest team in the country right now and they have the most Carling titles."
