The 205th edition of iDiski Times has arrived, and it’s packed with must-read stories ahead of one of the biggest showdowns on the continent — newly-crowned Betway Premiership champions, Mamelodi Sundowns, face Egypt’s formidable Pyramids FC in the CAF Champions League final.
In this issue, Matshelane Mamabolo takes us on a journey through history, revisiting every CAF Champions League final featuring South African clubs. He speaks to the legends who lived those iconic moments, while Lorenz Köhler taps into the mood in Egypt — exploring Pyramids’ ambitions and the growing North African respect for Sundowns.
Matshelane also catches up with Thapelo Morena, the versatile Sundowns star who narrowly missed out on the club’s 2016 continental triumph — and now has another opportunity, nine years later.
As Amajita celebrate their historic CAF U20 AFCON title, Rob Delport unpacks the crucial role the DStv Diski Challenge has played in South Africa’s youth development and the rise of this golden generation.
Meanwhile, Lethabo Kganyago sits down with Lucky Lekgwathi, former Orlando Pirates skipper, to reflect on Jose Riveiro’s departure and discuss what lies ahead for the Buccaneers.
All that, plus the latest whispers from the Rumour Mill and our not-to-be-missed coaching column by Moritz Kossmann, that is not to be missed.
