Football returns to National Stadium

The Orange FA Cup quarterfinals arrive carrying everything that makes cup football thrilling. Once again the fallen giants search for relevance, while underdogs chasing immortality, city rivalry warfare in the midst and champions trying to tighten their grip on the throne. Friday evening under the floodlights sees Black Lions face Mochudi Centre Chiefs in a clash of desperation and expectation. Dibata may be fighting for survival in the league, but the FA Cup has become their escape route.

In their debut campaign in the competition, they have already built a reputation after eliminating third-tier side Ferry Wanderers before dumping fellow Premier League outfit Morupule Wanderers in the Last 16.
