PSL Playoffs: Casric, Orbit draw to give CT City hope of retaining topflight status
Orbit College and Casric Stars played out a cagey 0-0 draw in their PSL Promotional Playoff opener, leaving the promotion race wide open. Both goalkeepers impressed, with Sekhoane Moerane and Emile Lako Wendeu pulling off key saves in a tense first half. The match lost momentum after halftime, with neither side able to create clear chances as defences took control and caution prevailed. The PSL Promotional Playoffs kicked off with a tense stalemate on Wednesday afternoon. Orbit College and Casric Stars played out a 0-0 draw, keeping both sides on level ground but doing little to clarify the race for Premiership promotion. Orbit, still chasing their first win in a playoff fixture after their winless campaign in 2022, began brightly. Siyabulela Mabele came close inside the first minute, latching onto a loose ball and unleashing a stinging shot that forced a solid save from Casric goalkeeper Emile Lako Wendeu. Casric, with Kermit Erasmus and Decide Chauke leading their frontline, showed intent but lacked cohesion in the final third. Thabang Semache's long-range effort midway through the first half nearly broke the deadlock, but Orbit keeper Sekhoane Moerane was sharp and denied him at full stretch. Moerane was called into action again shortly before halftime to tip over a powerful header from Simon Fils Ndou Moukete. The second half, however, saw a more tactical and conservative approach from both benches. Erasmus was withdrawn in the 54th minute after struggling to influence proceedings, and Orbit introduced Gomolemo Khoto and Reuben Kgabane to inject fresh energy, but clear chances dried up as the match wore on. With defences taking control and both teams cautious of losing their opener, the game fizzled out to a goalless draw. It's a point apiece, and while it doesn't ignite the playoff race, it sets the stage for a vital clash on Saturday when Orbit travel to Cape Town to face Premiership side Cape Town City. Kick-off is at 15:00 at Cape Town Stadium.

The Rangers Linked To Jason Robertson With Stars In Limbo After Disappointing Playoff Exit
Danny Wild-Imagn Images There's one trade target who the New York Rangers may have their eyes on that nobody would have expected. With the Dallas Stars losing in the Western Conference Final for the third straight year and the team running into some cap-flexibility problems, forward Jason Robertson is a player who could potentially become available. There Are Reportedly Only Three Untouchable Players In Trade Talks For The Rangers There Are Reportedly Only Three Untouchable Players In Trade Talks For The Rangers Everyone on the New York Advertisement Rangers roster is open to being traded except for three players. 'Teams are buzzing around the 25-year-old All-Star, wondering if they can seize on Dallas' itch for change following its third straight loss in the Western Conference Final,' Vince Mercogliano of USA Today wrote. 'The Rangers, I'm told, are one of them.' Robertson is entering the final year of a four-year, $31 million contract as he's set to become a restricted free agent during the summer of 2026 and is due for a substantial pay increase. This past season, Robertson recorded 35 goals, 45 assists, and 80 points in 82 games while averaging 17:48 minutes. Advertisement The Rangers are a team that is looking to shake up their roster according to multiple NHL insiders, so the team's desire for change is no secret. It's unclear if the Stars will even make Robertson available via trade and the Rangers would have to agree to a long-term contract extension with Robertson in a scenario where they acquire him. It's all a bunch of what-ifs as of right now, but the fact that the Rangers have been linked to a player like Robertson is significant in its own right and should certainly not be overlooked.

Charalampos Kostoulas set to undergo Brighton medical ahead of €35m transfer from Olympiacos
Olympiacos striker Charalampos Kostoulas is set to undergo a medical before completing a move to Brighton & Hove Albion. The Athletic reported earlier this month that Brighton were in negotiations with the Greek Super League club over the potential transfer of the 18-year-old. A deal worth €35m (£29.6m; $40.2m) plus an additional €2m (£1.6m, $2.2m) in add-ons is nearing completion. Advertisement Kostoulas is set to sign a five-year deal and will join up with his new team-mates in July for pre-season. It was revealed by The Athletic on May 16 that the Premier League side had submitted an offer of around £30m plus Senegal forward Abdallah Sima for Kostoulas but Olympiacos rejected that proposal. Kostoulas is regarded as one of the hottest young talents in Europe. The teenage forward helped Olympiacos to win the youth version of the Champions League in 2023-24 with five goals in eight appearances. He featured regularly for the first team in the Greek Super League and in the Europa League this season, with seven goals and two assists in 30 appearances. Kostoulas has scored five goals in 15 appearances representing Greece in age groups from under-16 to under-21 but is yet to make his senior international debut.
