United narrowly edged Highlands Park 1-0 thanks to a first-half header by Bradley Grobler.
Tembo dedicated the win and the cup to striker Thamsanqa Gabuza, describing him as a warrior and a hard worker who worked hard since joined United at the start of the season. "I think I am a little bit emotional but not because of the game but the sad news I heard after the game. There is something that Gabuza did that I didn't expect him to do and I don't encourage him to do that. But he did it for the badge and for the team," Tembo said.
"This is what happened, he lost his son on Monday and he never told anyone in the club and the funeral was on Thursday and he didn't attend the funeral because he didn't want to upset the camp." "For me it just killed everything, I see someone who is committed, who a lot of players can learn from him. For someone to play like that at the back of what happened I dedicate this cup to him."
No Bombsquad there.
Tough luck Gabuza shit do happens in life ,it is also my pleasure to congratulate you gyzs
Eeh, so this fella didn't attend his son's funeral. SMH.
condolences to Gabuza

If they had taken the game to areas that hardly see any professional soccer, then the stadium would have been full. Cape Town Stadium .... starved of finals! Bring it to Cape Town!
