Venue named for Coke Cup final

The Premier Soccer League (PSL) on Wednesday announced that the Coca-Cola Cup final between Kaizer Chiefs and Supersport United will take place at Vodacom Park in Bloemfontein on December 18, starting at 8pm.

”The Coca-Cola Cup committee held a meeting in Johannesburg today [Wednesday] to decide the venue for the final,” said PSL spokesperson Andrew Dipela.

”After intensive deliberations, the Coca-Cola Cup committee unanimously agreed that the final will be played at Vodacom Park rugby stadium in Bloemfontein.

”Representatives of the two clubs were also present at the meeting,” said Dipela after the meeting at the league’s offices in Doornfontein.

”The tickets for the match will be available at Computicket outlets throughout the country from December 9. They cost R25 for adults and R10 for children.”

Chiefs qualified for the final after beating Moroka Swallows in the semifinal in Pretoria on Saturday, while United defeated Wits University in Potchefstroom.

Amakhosi won the tournament in Johannesburg last year after beating Silver Stars of Limpopo.
