The Nelson Mandela Challenge soccer match between South Africa and the United States, at Cape Town Stadium on November 17, will be the first time in three years that Bafana Bafana have played in the Mother City.
Tickets are now available through Computicket, and cost R50 or R100, depending where you want to sit. The match kicks off at 21h30, with gates opening at 18h30, giving spectators plenty of time to find their seats.
The United States performed well at the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ in South Africa this year, making it to the Round of 16, where they were knocked out by Ghana. Midfielder Landon Donovan was one of the stars of the tournament and is a player that Bafana Bafana, as well as the Cape Town crowd, should watch carefully.
According to various news reports, Bafana Bafana coach Pitso Mosimane will announce his squad for the match on November 10. Siphiwe Tshabalala will be one of the key players for the hosts.
Cape Town Stadium hosted eight matches during the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, including a quarter-final and a semi-final.
