Stellies Need Silverware To Claim Deserved Respect

IF ever there was an award for Peoples team of choice something like a Players Player of the Season in the Premier Soccer League PSL, surely Stellenbosch FC would be front runners if not the ultimate favourites.

The Maroons have consistently punched above their weight and as a result, on Thursday afternoon the whole of Mzansi will be waiting with eagerness to see who they are drawn against in the Caf Confederation Cup quarter-finals draw.

The draw will take place in Doha, Qatar and will be televised live at 4pm South African time.

This will be followed by the Caf Champions League draw at 5pm, in which PSL giants Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns, will be representing the Rainbow Nation.

Now, going back to Stellenbosch what makes this more special for the Maroons is that they have made the quarter-finals in their very first attempt at the continental showpiece.
