No surprises on Day 1 of the Kay Motsepe Schools Cup national finals



There were no surprises on day 1 of the under-19 Kay Motsepe Schools Cup national finals currently underway at the Nike Centre in Soweto today.

The Gauteng teams, Clapham High School and the SAFA Transnet School of Excellence ended the day topping Group A and B respectively after playing their first three games. 

Clapham beat Sizwakele from Mpumalanga 3 – 0, drew against KZN’s Dr Reginald Cingo in their second game and beat Ngabade (KZN) 4 – 0 to end top of Group A.  However tomorrow will be a crucial day for Clapham and Dr Reginald Cingo who are both on the same number of points but Clapham leading on goal difference.

The Sports School of Excellence from Gauteng East beat both Weslaan High School (Northern Cape) and Desmond Mpilo Tutu (Western Cape) 2 – 0 and went on to beat Kriel Hoerskool (Mpumalanga) by a convincing 3 – 0 ending the day on 9 points.

2013 national second place finishers, HTS Louis Botha from the Free State played two games in Group C on day one and go top of the log after beating Itshupeng (North West) 1 – 0 and Groblershoop (Northern Cape) 2 – 0.

Whether the winners keep up the momentum will be seen tomorrow as the group stages come to an end, but what is a certainty is the fact that the standard of football seen today is higher than seen in previous years, this is according to some of the scouts that attended the games from PSL clubs such as Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns.

The scouts are not keen to single out any players at this stage as day 1 is always difficult as the players get their rhythm and nerves have to settle down.  It will be day three when the finest talent will be identified.  “While a once off superb performance is a good sign of a skilled player, it is consistency that we look for primarily,” said a Sundowns scout.
