Domestic football is back, and it was exciting to watch some games this past weekend, with some interesting results. doing.
-
We saw 10 league goals scored in four matches with Chippa United remaining at the foot of the table after their 2-1 loss away to Marumo Gallants at Dr Molemela Stadium. Orbit College secured their third win so far this campaign, with Monnapule Saleng scoring their winning goal to give them 10 points from 10 games, when they beat TS Galaxy 2-1. I'm sure, by the time you read this column, there will be some changes as three fixtures would have been played on Wednesday night. These are indeed exciting times for our football and I'm sure you are enjoying it as much as I am doing.
On CAF inter-club tournaments
We had Mamelodi Sundowns, Orlando Pirates, Stellenbosch FC and Kaizer Chiefs participating in the CAF inter-club competitions, as they were in the CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup clashes this past weekend, respectively. Obviously, the teams came back with mixed results as Sundowns won convincingly, with Pirates losing while Stellies and Chiefs played to goalless draws.
The teams will be playing their second leg matches this weekend and I wish them all the best. It is very important for our teams to do well in these tournaments as that experience will benefit our national team and equip our players to be able to handle the pressures that come with international football. Once again, all the best to our representatives because we want to see an improvement from last season's performances. Remember, we had three of our four teams reaching the semi-finals while Sundowns lost in the final.

Adams faces race against time
Jayden Adams' international future hangs in the balance, and the countdown has officially begun. With just one month remaining before Hugo Broos finalises his squad for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, the 24-year-old midfielder finds himself in a position few would have predicted two years ago. Once a rising star of Stellenbosch FC and a standout performer at the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast, Adams now faces the harsh reality of reduced game time at Mamelodi Sundowns and uncertainty around his Bafana Bafana role. The player who earned his way into Broos' plans through hard work and consistency has slipped into unfamiliar territory at club level, and his national team prospects have dimmed as a result. The Siya crew has been tracking his situation closely, uncovering worrying signs behind the scenes as Adams fights to keep his AFCON dream alive.
