It’s Carling Black Label Cup weekend in South Africa, as Kaizer Chiefs & Orlando Pirates go head to head in the traditional season curtain-raiser
Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs collide in the Carling Black Label Cup this weekend, as the Soweto giants meet in the traditional South African curtain-raiser.
It’s a match not quite like any other, as the head coaches of the two domestic giants take a backseat and allow the fans to step up to take responsibility for picking the teams.
The two sets of supporters have made some compelling Carling Black Label Cup selection choices, with some old favourites being brought back into the fold and some first-team regulars dropping to the peripheries of Bucs’ and the Amakhosi’s selections.
