The story

Mamelodi Sundowns stood firm to advance to the semi-finals of the CAF Champions League after holding Esperance Sportive de Tunis to a goalless draw in Rades on Tuesday, winning 1-0 on aggregate.

Esperance's Ultras, known as the Curva Sud, filled up as much of the Hammadi Agrebi Stadium as they could for the crucial encounter, with the pre-match build-up showcasing an impressive TIFO mural displayed on the stands.

The artwork displayed the words, "Tokoloshe" (an urban myth symbolising an evil spirit or creature), with an illustration of skulls surrounding a cartoon character wearing an Esperance shirt, pulling the head of another character in the colours of Sundowns.

iDiski Times journalist, Lorenz Kohler, shared a clear image of the massive TIFO, with videos from various Esperance fan pages doing the rounds on Instagram. 

Watch below:

Following up last week's violence at Loftus Versfeld in the first leg, the Esperance fans once again showed their aggressive side by throwing objects at their players after the game. 

Mamelodi Sundowns will meet defending champions, Al Ahly SC, in the semi-finals, as their quest for their first Champions League crown since 2016 continues.
