Sundowns draw top-flight newbies Royal AM in Nedbank Cup semi-final showdown
Mamelodi Sundowns are well on course for a domestic clean sweep but will now come face-to-face against top-flight newbies Royal AM in the Nedbank Cup semi-finals.
The Brazilians glowingly put five-goals past quarter-final opponents Summerfield Dynamos - the first team from the ABC Motsepe League to reach the Nedbank Cup quarter-finals since 2011 - on Saturday to set up a mouth-watering clash against the KwaZulu-Natal outfit later in April.
Royal AM, meanwhile, had to work hard in their quest to advance in the competition with a 3-2 win over University of Pretoria on Sunday afternoon.
Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM) pulled off a great upset when they came from two goals down to beat SuperSport United 3-2 after extra-time to set up a clash against Marumo Gallants.
Semi-final date and venues will be announced in due course.
