The Rise and Shine mentor has lobbed a verbal grenade into the post-match fallout, boldly challenging the call to hand the Amakhosi midfielder the accolade after Saturday’s tense, chess-like stalemate.

Taraji's head coach has launched a scathing attack on the officiating after his side was knocked out of the continental competition by the Tshwane giants. The Tunisian heavyweights fell to a 2-0 aggregate defeat following a narrow loss at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.

The Bucs head coach has thrown down a strong warning to the rest of the Premier Soccer League, insisting his side could have 'won 7-0' after their commanding display against AmaZulu at the Orlando Amstel Arena. The Buccaneers returned to the top of the table with a clinical performance, with Ouaddou full of praise for his players’ ruthless edge while making it clear there will be no easing off as they maintain full-throttle pressure and vow to fight until the very end of the title race.

Things couldn’t be heating up more at the summit, with the Soweto giants storming back to the top of the Premier Soccer League table with a two-point lead, albeit with the Brazilians still holding two games in hand. Abdeslam Ouaddou’s charges have turned up the heat, cranking up the pressure and laying down a serious marker to their title rivals as the race tightens.

The Glamour Boys began the Premier Soccer League season with high hopes, competing on multiple fronts, including the CAF Confederation Cup and Nedbank Cup, but their campaign quickly unravelled, leaving them battling for a top-eight finish. However, the Naturena-based outfit has since turned things around in impressive fashion, reigniting their push for a return to African continental football, and Ben Youssef has opened the lid on the transformation.

The Tshwane giants are set to host the Tunisian club at the sold-out Loftus Versfeld this Saturday. Holding a narrow 1-0 lead from the CAF Champions League first leg in Tunis, the Brazilians have taken the first step toward progression, but their coach remains cautious of any complacency.

The Bucs legend has admitted it would be a massive blow for the Buccaneers to finish as runners-up in the Premier Soccer League again. Despite a season that has already delivered two domestic trophies, the lingering presence of Mamelodi Sundowns continues to haunt the Soweto giants in their quest for league glory.

The former Soweto giants goalkeeper Moeneeb Josephs has delivered a brutal reality check to the Buccaneers faithful, claiming the Premier Soccer League title race is effectively over. Despite his deep emotional ties to the club, the legendary shot-stopper believes Sundowns' vast experience and Pirates' tendency to stumble at the finish line have handed the crown back to the Brazilians.

The Tshwane giants are fine-tuning for battle with a foot in the continental showpiece, but the 26-year-old right-back has slammed the brakes on any early celebrations at Chloorkop. Even with a narrow first-leg cushion in their pocket, the Masandawana defender has made it clear the mission is still wide open as they gear up to welcome the Tunisian team.

The Chloorkop outfit has been urged to lodge a formal appeal against the red card shown to the 33-year-old centre-back during their CAF Champions League semi-final first-leg clash. Despite grinding out a hard-fought 1-0 victory, the dismissal of the experienced defender has cast a shadow over the result ahead of the crucial return leg.

Former Amakhosi star and outspoken pundit Junior Khanye has sent a clear message to Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos regarding his defensive selections. Following a commanding continental performance, Khanye believes two Mamelodi Sundowns stars have proved they are indispensable for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.

The 31-year-old playmaker has quickly become a key figure in the Soweto giants’ midfield since joining the side led by co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef earlier this season. The ex-Mamelodi Sundowns star has been in fine form at Naturena, earning widespread praise from both the Amakhosi faithful and the technical team for how seamlessly he has settled into life at the club.

The Portuguese mentor has warned his players that their CAF Champions League semi-final is far from over despite securing a first-leg advantage in Tunis.
