Who Can Stop Mamelodi Sundowns' March To Carling Knockout Title?

You can forgive Mamelodi Sundowns fans for thinking their team already has one hand on the Carling Knockout Cup trophy after Sundays semi-final draw.

Sundowns progressed to the semi-finals with a 4-0 thumping of Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday. The league champions are the only team currently in the top half of the Betway Premiership table that qualified for the last-four of the tournament which will be played this coming weekend.

Magesi FC, Richards Bay and Marumo Gallants currently feature in the bottom six of the Premiership standings, but have fought above their weight to make it to the semis.

The newly-promoted Magesi caused the upset of the tournament of the tournament when they beat Orlando Pirates 3-2 in the round of 16 at Orlando Stadium. They followed up that win with a 1-0 win over TS Galaxy in the quarters on Sunday.

Clinton Larsons Magesi will take on Richards Bay in the semis, after the KwaZulu-Natal side managed to see off Cape Town City FC in the quarters after a dramatic penalty shootout after finishing the game with 10 men on the park.
