What’s on

Orlando Pirates vs Magesi FC

All eyes are on Soweto as Orlando Pirates gear up to take on defending champions Magesi FC in the Carling Knockout Quarter-Final at Orlando Stadium on Tuesday, 28 October. The clash comes at a tough time for the Buccaneers, who’ll be fresh off their CAF Champions League second preliminary round tie just a week earlier, but if there’s one thing Pirates fans know, it’s that pressure brings out their best. Magesi, meanwhile, won’t make it easy. As last year’s champions, they’re arriving confident and ready to defend their title. Kick-off is at 7 pm, with tickets available for R60.
