Photo: Backpagepix Siviwe Nkwali saysStellenboschare currently putting most of their focus on domestic matters, which is why they are not lamenting their exit from the continental showpiece, the CAF Confederation Cup. Stellenbosch failed to progress past the group stage of the Confederation Cup after finishing third in their round-robin matches – an outing that meant they couldn’t emulate or surpass last season’s semi-final berth.

However, Stellies’ exit from the continent may have been a blessing in disguise. Redeeming theirleague campaign is part of Stellies’ bigger focus, as they also want to do well in theNedbank Cup, in which they will face Golden Arrowsat King Zwelithini Stadium on Saturday night (6pm kick-off). “The domestic cup and the league, which is our bread and butter, is where we are putting our focus mostly,” Nkwali said.

“So, we want to do well in the games and cups that we are involved in. “I can’t, however, say that we are focusing on one cup and not the other. We want to do well in all the games we play.”
