United Masters set the pace as KwaGuqa Masters League heats up
Defending champions United Masters have made their intentions for the 2025 season crystal clear – they're not letting go of the title without a fight.

Hot on their heels are Shining Stars, last season's runners-up, who also made a bold statement with a commanding 3-0 win over Maredi United.
Their performance not only keeps them in close contention but also signals that the race for the top spot is far from over.
Shining Stars chairman Daisy Tseka believes this season could be one of the most competitive in recent memory.
'This league is on fire right now,' Daisy, said.
'The quality, the hunger, the passion – it's unmatched. Every team is bringing their best, but make no mistake, Shining Stars are here to light up this league. We're not just aiming for the top – we're ready to take it.'
Other matches on the day included a narrow 1-0 win by Vhithiza Legends over Dangerous Darkies, while ST John Legends edged Umlilo Masters by the same score line. In a closely contested clash, 3D Masters and All Nation Masters played to a 1-1 draw.
As the early weeks of the league unfold, fans are already witnessing thrilling football and growing tension at the top of the table.
With both United Masters and Shining Stars showing strong form, the season promises a battle that could go down to the wire.
