Harmony High School and Dr R. Cingo Comprehensive School from the Free State as well as Rosina Sedibane Sports School and Johannesburg High School from Gauteng are through to the quarterfinals of the Sanlam Kay Motsepe Schools Cup happening in Bloemfontein. The teams from KwaZulu Natal are Embizeni High School and Cabangokuhle High School.
In accordance to the rules of the competition the teams that finish the League in positions one and two in each Group qualify for the quarterfinals. As there are three groups, of the three teams in third place, the two with the highest points also qualify. Ncedo (Eastern Cape) and Embizeni (KwaZulu-Natal) therefore make up the final two teams.
Rosina Sedibane topped Group A after winning all their games today but did not manage to get maximum points as they were beaten 3 – 1 by Harmony, the team that finished in second place, yesterday. Harmony on the other hand did not lose a game but draw against Rietvale and Jojo to put them a point behind Rosina
The surprise of the day came school from a small rural village, Emsinga in KwaZulu-Natal who surprised everyone with their gutsy play and determination to do well. Emizeni High School had the fans from Bloemfontein, as well as fellow competitors, on their feet when they beat the Johannesburg Secondary School 1 – 0 to put them in second place in Group C, behind the mighty team from Gauteng that has 10 Orlando Pirates development players.
Emizeni team manager was pleased with the team’s performance: “We did not do well in the Provincial finals and were beaten by Cabangokuhle. When we got home we started training three times a day to get our game plan perfect and this paid off. I am looking forward to tomorrow and will hopefully finish high up and earn money for the school.”
In Group B Cabangokuhle High School from KwaZulu-Natal finished on top with Pabalelo from the Northern Cape in second place.
The play-offs will take place on Friday, 15 July at Clive Solomon Stadium. Arriving will the some of the Sundowns management include Daniel Mudau.
