Vaal derby headlines Champion of Champs semifinals

The DStv eKasi Champion of Champs competition changes venues this weekend and moves to the Moletsane Sports Complex in Soweto for the Cup and Plate semifinals.

On Saturday in the Plate last four, Ramatloahle take on Rhulani Mokoena’s Black Poison at 1pm CAT (SA, GMT+2).

Ramatlaohle conceded the most goals in the group stages of the tournament, letting in nine goals and only scoring three.

Their heaviest defeat came against Free Agents, who beat them 5-2 on Sunday.

However, that was their only defeat as they managed to play out 2-2 draws in their two other games.

Black Poison, meanwhile, failed to win a single game in the group stages of the tournament.

At 3pm, Ramokokastad FC take on eKasi football giants Soweto Super United (SSU) in the other plate semifinal.

SSU missed out on a spot in the Cup semis after Mpumalanga side Phaphama FC stole the show in the second half to secure a 2-0 victory that left the Soweto side out in the cold.

Soweto Super United finished the group stages on four points after recording one win, one loss and one draw.

Ramokokastad, meanwhile, finished bottom of their group after playing out two draws and going down 4-0 to Tshwane side Free Agents.

On Sunday, at 1pm the first Cup semifinal sees Free Agents take on surprise package Phapama FC, who snuck into the playoffs on goal difference ahead of SSU after they both finished on four points in their respective groups.

Free Agents have scored the most goals this tournament, amassing a total of ten goals in three games.

They opened their campaign with a loss but redeemed themselves with convincing victories in their other match-ups.

In the final game of the day, Swidi Wodwa are up against the western region champions, Covid 19 in a Vaal derby.

Swidi finished top of their group on six points while Covid 19 finished second in their group with five points.

The Covid side will rely on Eddie Sikhalane, who has been their star player so far in the tournament, to hopefully get them into the finals for a shot at the R250 000 prize money and coveted trophy.
