Cup finals at the venue are nothing short of a nightmare
There was huge anticipation when the Premier Soccer League (PSL) was set to announce the venue for the 2025 MTN8 final between defending champions Orlando Pirates and Stellenbosch FC.
Die-hard Bucs supporters, those who swear by the skull and crossbones of Ezimnyama nge Nkani were itching and anxious and they could not wait for the annoucement of the venue. So too were the handful of supporters back in the Cape winelands of Stellenbosch.
When PSL media officer Fhatuwani Mpfuni was opening the envelope, he unleashed some suspense - it almost felt like in 2004 when Sepp Blatter announced “Sous Africa” as the organisers of the 2010 Fifa World Cup. The ambiance and the occasion were definitely not of the same levels, but the young lad tried to create some drama, not to bad effort at all.
