Stellies turn to Africa for revival
Cape Argus
|November 13, 2025
STELLENBOSCH FC’s 2025/26 season has played out like a novel no one could have predicted - filled with drama, setbacks and few, if any, sparks of brilliance. Now they turn each page with quiet hope, chasing the elusive final chapter where joy finally outweighs struggle.
With the season yet to reach its halfway mark, Steve Barker and his side still hold the pen to their own story. While inconsistent league form has been the source of much frustration, a shift in focus to the CAF Confederation Cup could provide the fresh spark they need to regain momentum.
Stellies return to the continental stage after making history last season, when they came within touching distance of a dream final before bowing out in the semifinals to Tanzanian Premier League side Simba SC (1-0 aggregate loss).
The competition brings back fond memories for Barker and his players - a reminder of what they are capable of and, perhaps, a timely source of confidence during a challenging phase of their domestic campaign.
