“There’s no feeling that beats the one of winning the cup itself.'

Shandu made his debut in a 0-0 draw league match against AmaZulu FC as a 19-year-old on December 2013 and the midfielder‚ who was born in his team’s hometown in Pietermaritzburg‚ has never looked back.

Shandu said he is looking forward to the final and he's excited as he was when Maraitzburg faced Free State Stars in the Nedbank Cup final in May last year‚ a game they eventually lost 1-0.“There’s no feeling that beats the one of winning the cup itself.The right-footed midfielder‚ who has been used wide and sometimes as a central attacking midfielder‚ played all the minutes in Maritzburg’s penalty shoot-out victories against Bidvest Wits and Highlands Park.

He said winning the trophy would be the cherry on the icing after the loyalty he’s given to his club since turning professional in 2013."Winning silverware as a team is more important‚” said Shandu‚ who turns 25 on January 19.“We just need to be there and actually work hard and get the positive result.”

“Just please carry on coming in numbers and we’ll work very hard to give something back to them‚” was Shandu’s message to the supporters."From last season they stuck by us‚ so I think to give them this silverware would mean a lot to them.”
