Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs have progressed into the African Champions League group stages after winning their respective first round, second leg fixture on Tuesday.
Sundowns made it to the money stages of the competition after a 3-1 win over Jwaneng Galaxy at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium.
The South African champions side go through on a 5-1 goal aggregate as they had won the first leg match by 2-0 margin in Gaborone a fortnight ago.
A first half goal by Kermit Erasmus, a headed effort by Mothobi Mvala and a cool finish from Thapelo Morena saw Sundowns making a double against the Botswana league champions.
Tebogo Sembowa managed a late consolation goal after capitalizing on a feeble clearance by Sundown’s second-choice goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene.
Elsewhere, Kaizer Chiefs reached the Champions League group stages for the first time after edging out Primeiro de Agosto 1-0 on aggregate.
The Amakhosi had been held by the Angolan side to a 0-0 draw in the first leg in Johannesburg last month, a game they might have won comfortably with more adept finishing.
Leonardo Castro scored the all-important goal in the 41st minute after he guided home a left-sided cross from Khama Billiat.
Agosto went all out in the first half in search of an early goal with Chiefs doing everything possible to defend away from home.
The Angolans found it hard to break down the Glamour Boys backline with Daniel Akpeyi standing tall between the posts.
Coming into the second half, Agosto were unlucky not to score as they numerously forced Eric Mathoho and co. to multiple defensive clearances.
Both losers of the two games, Jwaneng Galaxy and Primeiro de Agosto, fell to the African Confederation Cup group stage play-offs.
