Mamelodi Sundowns edged out Sekhukhune United 1-0 in their rescheduled Nedbank Cup quarter-final on Friday, 28 March 2025, at Lucas Moripe Stadium in Atteridgeville.
This win propels Sundowns into the semi-finals, where they will face Kaizer Chiefs next month.
The match was initially postponed due to a double-booking of Lucas Moripe Stadium, which was also slated to host an Under-17 FIFA Women’s World Cup qualifier on the same day.
