Recent Match Highlights
The last few weeks have been a roller‑coaster for Stellenbosch. A 2‑1 win over Maritzburg United showed the side can finish games strong, thanks to a late header from forward Lyle Foster. The following draw against Kaizer Chiefs highlighted defensive solidity but also exposed a lack of cutting edge in midfield. Goalkeeper Shaun Pietersen earned three clean‑sheet saves in a narrow 0‑0 stalemate with Mamelodi Sundowns, proving the back line can hold its own against top opposition.
Transfer Talk and Squad Changes
This transfer window has brought buzz around Stellenbosch. The club secured a loan deal for midfielder Thabo Makama from Orlando Pirates, adding creativity on the flanks. At the same time, veteran defender Sipho Nkosi left for a coaching role in the National First Division, opening space for academy graduate Mzamo Dlamini to step up. Rumors suggest a possible overseas move for striker Lyle Foster if he keeps his scoring streak alive, but management says they are focused on keeping a balanced squad.
In the PSL table, Stellenbosch sits mid‑table, hovering around 8th place with six wins, three draws and four losses. The next fixtures include a tough away match at Mamelodi Sundowns followed by a home clash with SuperSport United.
