Both of them Keagan Furman's — 8.02
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.02, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.
Squad23 Nov 2026
Remember the name: Teboho Dala
He is 20, he is averaging 7.15, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Morgan Modiba puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Black Aces, and it is not being withdrawn.
Squad23 Nov 2026
Dean Jali in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Black Aces this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match21 Nov 2026
Bidvest Wits take the points off Black Aces
Beaten 3‑4, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
Match21 Nov 2026
Nobody could stop scoring
7 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Black Aces and Bidvest Wits in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Words at Black Aces training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Teboho Dala is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Ninety minutes of Gift Kekana at his very best
Marked 8.01. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Black Aces.
The dugout23 Nov 2026
The manager makes an example of Erick Williams
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
In brief
- The dugout The manager’s verdict
- The dugout Lebogang Vilakazi knocks on the manager’s door
- Squad Beaten 4 times: a bad day for Lebogang Williams
