La Masia had a little fairytale run in the Nedbank Cup but things have gone South for them in the league as they are flirting with relegation.

Orlando Pirates and SuperSport United legend Daine Klate has officially been sacked by Motsepe Foundation Championship side NB La Masia.
This follows a series of poor results that left La Masia lingering in 12th position with seven league games to go.
Klate was unable to win any of his team’s last five matches – La Masia lost two and drew three of those games.
Overall, La Masia have won five, drawn 10 and lost eight, meaning they have collected just 25 points.
La Masia are two points above the relegation zone – 15th-placed Platinum City Rovers are tied on 23 points with Milford FC while Marumo Gallants are rock bottom with just 20 points.
Now, La Masia have already replaced Klate with Alzavian Van Rheede who will be the head coach while former PSL star Ashraf Hendricks will be his assistant.
