In their quarter-finals Phunya Sele Sele once again came back from behind to beat Roger de Sa’s Platinum Stars 2-1 at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium in Rustenburg.

Celtic are optimistic about their chances of winning the competition, but the manager John Maduka, warned that Polokwane cannot be taken lightly.
