Hi Rufus, welcome to the third and final part of our Still in Touch edition. You started your story by telling us about your former SuperSport United teammate Japie Motale and talked about the time you were detained at an airport in Turkey. What can you tell us this week?

- By Zola Doda

Ha, ha, ha, that time in Turkey was really crazy. I will never forget it. anyway, let me tell you about the time when Pitso Mosimane had just been appointed as Bruce Grobbelaar's assistant at SuperSport United. That was really a long time ago and at the beginning of his coaching career. So, we were preparing a team that would play on the weekend and whenever we prepared the team, we used to play 11-v-11. Bruce picked his 11 that he thought were going to play on the weekend and Pitso was left with us youngsters.

Right...

But that day at training, Pitso's team, which had myself, Seuntjie Motlhajwa, Cavan Sibeko, and other young players, was really on top form. We were killing the senior players. And out of the blue, Bruce realised that our team was performing better and started making changes. He asked a few senior players like Zane Alexander to join the other team, and asked myself and Cavan to move to the other team. My brother, ha, ha, ha, eish that didn't sit well with Pitso; he got really emotional and started speaking Sesotho with the late Thomas Madigage.

Ha, ha, ha, what did he say to Thomas?

South Americans are very fragile

Last weekend we saw Orlando Pirates make history by becoming the first Carling Knockout champions to beat the All-Stars team, after both Magesi FC and Stellenbosch FC failed to do so in the previous two seasons. Pirates were forced to play without several of their regulars as they are in camp in preparation for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations. Coach Abdeslam Ouaddou's charges beat coach Manqoba Mngqithi's team 2-0 to be crowned champions, for the second time in a week. Congratulations to Bucs as they close the year on a high note.
