The Gauteng representatives in the Kay Motsepe Schools Cup
national finals will meet in the semi-finals of the competition at the Nike
Football Centre in Soweto later on today.
Clapham High School and the SAFA Transnet Sport School of
Excellence, both former champions in the competition, will face off for a place
in Saturday's R1million final, and Groblershoop of the Northern Cape will take
on Sukuma Secondary School from KwaZulu-Natal.
Groblershoop caused one of the upsets of the tournament when
they beat Western Cape representatives, Excelsior, on penalties, in their
quarterfinal clash. Groblershoop had scraped through into the quarterfinals,
after losing one and drawing one of their preliminary round matches.
Sakuma are also surprise semi-finalists - they went through
to the quarters as one of the lucky losers, having finished third in their
group in this three pool tournament. They went on to beat HTS Louis Botha
from the Free State on penalties to prevent them going through to the
semi’s. HTS Louis Botha is boosted by Bloemfontein Celtic academy
players.
Clapham, the school that the Mamelodi Sundowns Youth
Academy players attend, beat Dr Reginald Cingo of the Free State 2-0 in their
quarterfinal. They were unbeaten in the pool stages, although they were held to
a goalless draw by Dr Cingo in their round-robin clash on the opening day.
The Gauteng final will kick-off later on today.
