“It's a fair draw and no draw is easy,” reacted Sibusiso Khumalo after Kaizer Chiefs were drawn to host Maritzburg United in the Telkom Knockout Cup Last 16.

“We played against them already in the league,” added the left-back, “so they are not a closed book for us.”

The Last 16 draw was conducted on Thursday afternoon at Johannesburg’s Wanderers Clubhouse.

The Telkom Knockout Last 16 matches are scheduled to be played during the week of 18-22 October. All match logistics will be confirmed by the PSL in due course.
