First semifinal:


Black Leopards v Sundowns (9,30am)



Second semifinal:


Kaizer Chiefs v Dynamos (11,30)



The final will take place in the afternoon.



"We are very happy to be in the final stages of this event as it's a very important competition for us," said Vivian Casaletti, Kaizer Chiefs' brand manager.



"We'd like to thank our supporters who really came through for us, although we're sad to see that Orlando Pirates didn't make it as they have a vast support base that could have made a large contribution towards charity."



"Thanks must also go to Telkom for giving us this opportunity of raising money for the community, something which is part of Kaizer Chiefs' vision and mission statement," concluded Casaletti.



About R1,7 million was raised in last year's event which was won

by Chiefs after beating Leopards 8-7 on penalties.



The winning team in this year's event has been guaranteed

R400 000 while the runners up will pocket R200 000.



The two losing semifinalists will each get R100 000 for their

participation.



Sundowns amassed 173 049 votes followed by Chiefs at 138 458,

Orlando Pirates, who have appeared in this annual event every year until now,

did not make it this time around.
