“Its exciting to see how fans are looking forward to the big day. This is another indication of how much the campaign is appreciated and how Champion Coaches are eager to see their starting line-ups,” says Vijay Govindsamy, Carling Black Label’s General Manager.
“The FNB Stadium is a magnificent venue for the game and the occasion has become one of the highlights of the South African football calendar. The atmosphere is always electric and it is a day out not to be missed by supporters,” he added.
The Carling Black Label Cup is a fixture that captures the imagination of fans by putting the power of team selection into their hands.
