A brace, and Andile Khune takes the afternoon — 9.12

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Andile Khune provided it, and the 9.12 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Ramahlwe Jali stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Market2 Nov 2026

Thulani Zwane is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at SuperSport United is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market2 Nov 2026

Siyabonga Mphela wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at SuperSport United hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Match31 Oct 2026

SuperSport United rescue it on 95 minutes

Behind, and beaten by any honest reading, until minute 95. Mamelodi Sundowns had the points in their pocket and a corner of the ground still believed, which is generally when it happens.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A falling-out at SuperSport United

Lonwabo Magugwana and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Loan watch2 Nov 2026

Luther Kekana counts the days

“I watch every SuperSport United game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Gor Mahia runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Match31 Oct 2026

SuperSport United and Mamelodi Sundowns take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Robert Luthuli stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Robert Luthuli and SuperSport United agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

In brief

  • The dugout No hiding place for Erick Dala

Squad5 Oct 2026

4 goals for Ramahlwe Dolly

The match ball belongs to Ramahlwe Dolly, whose 4 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Bradley Zwane breaks a bone — 48 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 48 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market5 Oct 2026

Thulani Zwane has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around SuperSport United they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Match3 Oct 2026

Ramahlwe Dolly sends SuperSport United past Free State Stars

It finished 4‑3, and it was Ramahlwe Dolly’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to SuperSport United.

Match3 Oct 2026

7 goals as SuperSport United and Free State Stars go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between SuperSport United and Free State Stars, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

One of those days for Ramahlwe Dolly

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.87, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at SuperSport United

Andile Khune and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Andile Khune in the eights

A performance of 8.52 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Ramahlwe Manyama has improved at 24, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Bradley Zwane breaks a bone — 57 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 57 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market28 Sep 2026

Ramahlwe Dolly 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 SuperSport United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market28 Sep 2026

Only the photograph left for Ramahlwe Jali

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ramahlwe Jali will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around SuperSport United the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Boardroom28 Sep 2026

Thulani Zwane has agreed to leave SuperSport United for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Match26 Sep 2026

A bad afternoon for SuperSport United against Platinum Stars

1‑3 to Platinum Stars, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Siyabonga Mphela runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad28 Sep 2026

A falling-out at SuperSport United

Andile Khune and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

Sifiso Hlatshwayo: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

Alessandro Costantini gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
