Pirates face Gallants in the Carling Knockout Cup final in Polokwane


The Carling Knockout Cup final is upon us as Orlando Pirates face Marumo Gallants on Saturday evening at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane, Limpopo.

Former professional football players Mandla Masango and Keagan Buchanan say that the match will come down to discipline, focus and execution of game plans.

Buchanan says, “It’s gonna be a good occasion for the City and people of the City. Let’s hope the football match will be exciting for the people of the City. Polokwane is a big football City among those in South Africa. Pirates will take a 3-1.”

Masango says, “This is an incredible moment for the people of Limpopo. They hardly get finals now, they have an opportunity to host one and show us what they are capable of, but throughout the activation, people have been excited, they have been showing good vibes, good energy.” –  Reporting by Rendani Raliphaswa
