GU:2( Chikomo,52nd , Sandaka, 73rd)
BDF1( Saukani Zulu, 29th)
After a sloppy start to their Coca-Cola cup semi-final clash with BDFX XI, Gaborone United managed to resurrect and win the match 2-1 to book a place in the final against Mochudi Centre Chiefs.

Saukanai Zulu had put Matebele ahead with a powerful header, finishing of Otlantshekela Mooketsi's corner kick in the 29th minute, but Sageby Sandaka responded in the 52nd minute after a good combination with Ronald Chikomo. The match did not promise much excitement in the early stages as the two sides seemed more concerned about conceding than scoring, but things changed after 15 minutes.

Action heated up with GU controlling the match, while their opponents seemed to rely on counter attacks. Chikomo came very close just two minutes after he supplied Sandaka for the equaliser, but Michael Pepukani tipped the ball over the cross bar. Sandaka broke loose again in the 55th minute, but once again Pepukani's brilliance denied him his second goal as the young goal minder fisted for a corner kick again.
