Atletico Malagueno Panoramica

The Soweto giants' coach has delivered a clear message to his players following the Carling Knockout Cup Last 16 draw. Despite their status as defending champions, the Moroccan tactician is taking nothing for granted as the Buccaneers prepare to face the Stallions.

With the MTN8 concluding over the weekend, South African football now shifts it's focus to the second domestic cup as the fixtures for the Carling Knockout Cup Round of 32 have been revealed after the official draw on Wednesday night.

Former Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana star Gavin Lane has launched a scathing critique of the current coaching landscape in the Betway Premiership. The man affectionately known as the "Stability Unit" believes the rapid turnover of managers in South African football has reached a point of absurdity.

The 27-year-old has established himself as one of the most clinical finishers in the Premier Soccer League, but his international aspirations remain clouded by a perceived bias against African-based talent. Despite his prolific form for Abafana Bes'thende, the Ivorian striker is reportedly facing a nearly impossible task to break into The Elephants' star-studded squad.
