Video: Royal AM Staff Seen Conducting Ritual Before Golden Arrows Nedbank Cup Match

• Royal AM continued to be a handful in the Nedbank Cup
• Thwihli Thwahla accounted for Golden Arrows in the Last 16 of the tournament
• Before the game, a curious scene unfolded before the match on the Harry Gwala Stadium pitch

Royal AM is going to be a handful in this season's Nedbank Cup this season.

Thwihli Thwahla swept aside KawZulu-Natal rivals Golden Arrows 3-1 in the last 16 of the competition. Ricardo Nascimento opened the scoring for the visitors at the Harry Gwala Stadium with a penalty in the 33rd minute, before Knox Mutizwa equalised in the fourth minute of added time in the second half. Levy Mashiane made it 2-1 (110') and 3-1 (119') on either side of a Philani Cele red card (114').

Before all of this drama unfolded, something strange occurred on the field. Several Royal AM staff members were seen conducting what clearly was a ritual of sorts, ambling in predetermined lines on the field as well as... interactions... with the goalposts and nets.

In the colours of Kaizer Chiefs, Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana, 'Spider-Man' was renowned for always putting the toiletry bag inside the net he was minding.

This led to many theories about what was inside it, with some believing it was muthi.

Maweni admits to Rakhale derailment

Traditional healer, Gogo Maweni has made sensational claims regarding a famous footballer.

Maweni stated that she 'bewitched' former Orlando Pirates midfielder, Thabo Rakhale, which supposedly resulted in his career going off the rails.

Maweni, whose real name is Lee-Ann Makopo, alleged that Rakhale spurned her because she was a sangoma, which led to her getting even with him through the use of muthi.
