Mamelodi Sundowns beat Polokwane City to reach MTN8 semi-finals – now choose Soccer Laduma’s best caption

Mamelodi Sundowns came from behind to defeat Polokwane City 3-2 at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday night and secure a place in the MTN8 semi-finals.

The result provides the backdrop for this week’s “Pic of the Week” feature in Soccer Laduma, but the publication is asking readers to decide how the photograph should be captioned.

The popular feature appears in every edition of Soccer Laduma and has consistently proved a favourite with readers. In previous editions, the publication supplied its own caption to explain the action shown in the image. This time, supporters have been invited to write the headline themselves.

Readers are asked to study the picture and submit the caption they believe best captures the moment. The suggestion can be funny, inspiring or take any other approach, with Soccer Laduma set to choose the entry it considers most suitable.

The selected headline will be published alongside the “Pic of the Week” in Soccer Laduma, together with the name of the reader who submitted it.

The competition follows an entertaining MTN8 quarter-final encounter in which Mamelodi Sundowns recovered from conceding twice to overcome Polokwane City. Teboho Mokoena, new signing Antonio Van Wyk and returning player Cassius Mailula scored for the Brazilians.

Bonginkosi Dlamini and Tidimalo Molokwane were on target for the visiting side, but their goals were not enough to prevent Polokwane City from being eliminated from the competition.

Supporters can submit their proposed headlines in the comments section below the feature. They are also encouraged to check Soccer Laduma during the week to see whether their entry has been selected for publication.
