Amakhosi's co-coach has provided clarity on the surprise omission of several key stars during his side's crucial victory over Babina Noko. The Soweto giants secured their return to continental football with a hard-fought win, despite being deprived of several attacking options.

CAF Confederation Cup qualification was hanging in the balance coming into this game, the stakes couldn’t have been any higher. In a dramatic twist, one of the forgotten Glamour Boys stars rose from the shadows to stamp his mark when it mattered most, etching his name back into the hearts of the supporters. The Soweto giants dug deep and showed real character to script a strong finish to the 2025/26 Premier Soccer League campaign, sealing their place on the continental stage in style with two games left.

During their time in the Soweto giants reserve team, the duo showed flashes of real promise, earning a promotion to the first team, where the step up proved anything but a walk in the park. Their loan spell at Siwelele has yet to ignite a turnaround, with limited game time leaving the Amakhosi faithful questioning whether they can still bounce back from this setback.

Babina Noko, interim coach, has fired a bold warning to Amakhosi, declaring that the Limpopo outfit is ready to go to war for maximum points in their looming showdown. The stage is set for a mouthwatering clash at the Peter Mokaba Stadium on Sunday afternoon, with both sides locked in a fierce battle to cement a coveted top-three finish.

The Amakhosi reserve team coach has mapped out a bold philosophical reset he would unleash if entrusted with the first-team hot seat at Naturena. The youth tactician is pushing for a return to roots built on courage, intensity, and a stronger pipeline of academy graduates breaking into the senior side, arguing that homegrown talent must once again take centre stage in the club’s long-term vision.

The Glamour Boys boss has publicly challenged Bafana Bafana head coach over the continued absence of Amakhosi stars from the national team setup. With the tournament fast approaching, the Tunisian tactician believes the domestic form of his players can no longer be ignored by the national team selectors.

The Glamour Boys football manager has lifted the lid on the dramatic lengths he went to in order to ensure that the legendary star signed for Amakhosi instead of rivals Buccaneers. The Bafana Bafana legend, who recently received an honorary doctorate, was the subject of an intense tug-of-war that required a dawn dash to Johannesburg to seal the deal.

The Bafana Bafana striker’s high-profile return to South African football is rapidly turning into a nightmare as his loan spell at Amakhosi nears its conclusion. After arriving at Naturena with a massive reputation, the former Cape Town City star has failed to secure a regular spot in the starting XI, leaving his career at a crossroads.

The Soweto giants have spent years searching for a return to their former glory, and while the hierarchy is expected to appoint a high-profile successor to Nasreddine Nabi, a former Amakhosi mentor believes the answer is already in the building. The veteran mentor has thrown his weight behind the interim duo, insisting that another wholesale change could do more harm than good.

The Amakhosi boss has firmly backed the midfielder amid growing criticism over his physical approach to the game. The 29-year-old has found himself at the centre of a heated debate following a series of high-profile challenges in recent Betway Premiership fixtures.
