Defending Champions Bow Out! Stellenbosch FC ended Mamelodi Sundowns' Nedbank Cup defence with a come-from-behind 2-1 victory at Athlone Stadium on Saturday evening. Read more ▶️
Top scorer Peter Shalulile, Themba Zwane, Denis Onyango Gaston Sirino were recalled by coach Rulani Mokwena, while Stellies handed a debut to youngster Kyle Jurgens at right-back.
The Brazilians were under pressure again later on and nearly conceded after Fawaaz Basadien dropped to the far post of the area and fired a floating ball into the side-netting. Sundowns continued to push and went ahead seven minutes to halftime when Aubrey Modiba’s scorching shot from a tight angle hit the woodwork and rolled in off goalkeeper Lee Langeveldt.
Rayners bagged a double ten minutes later when he picked up possession from another forced defensive error and charged in space to dink over Onyango.
