Gaston Sirino’s superb strike 10 minutes from time handed Mamelodi Sundowns their third Nedbank Cup trophy win as they claimed a 1-0 success over Bloemfontein Celtic at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday.
It was billed as the most unusual Nedbank Cup decider with no fans in the stands due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but that did not detract from what was a thoroughly absorbing contest and a fitting end to the longest ever Nedbank Cup campaign that ran to some 220 days. The victory follows success for Sundowns in 2008 and 2015, and completes a ‘Treble’ of trophy wins for the Tshwane giants this season after they also claimed the Premiership and League Cup. It was disappointment for Celtic, who were appearing in a first ever Nedbank Cup decider, and had their moments to score, but could not claim a famous win.
We have two big NedbankCup2021 round of 16 matches coming up in Limpopo and KZN.
