2010 Lego Stadium!!
With the final just around the corner, both Mamelodi Sundowns coach Gordon Igesund and Kaizer Chiefs boss Muhsin Ertugral have taken time out from their preparations to praise the tournament sponsors, Telkom for a job well done.
“We must thank Telkom for putting forward a great opportunity for us here,” said Ertugral.
He added: “It’s a major cup, very important cup for us and the organisation has been tremendous and wonderful. It’s the most highly paid cup in Africa, so it has huge, huge interest.
“So, for us, I must say thank you very much for the wonderful organisation and I hope it’s going to be a wonderful day.”
Igesund, meanwhile, said both teams were very happy to have reached the final of this lucrative competition.
“I just think it’s a wonderful day for South African football. Both teams’ sets of supporters expect every time we go onto the field that we have to win the game,” said Igesund.
“It’s always going to be a difficult game, tight game; players don’t want to make mistakes. They get nervous out there, but I’ve told my players to enjoy their game; let’s go out there and enjoy it.
“I think it’s a sponsor’s dream to have Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs playing in a final. It’s a fantastic competition; it’s been run tremendously well with a lot of money being put into it. They (Telkom) have led by example and we just hope we can go out there and make them all proud,” concluded Igesund.

Looking forward to the weekends game… Chiefs to win with a single goal 1-0.
Ingenious, amazing video…
FIFA may introduce goal-line technology at the 2010 World Cup if it proves effective at next month’s world club championship in Japan.
In the experimental system, a microchip in the ball relays an electronic signal to the referee’s watch when it crosses the goal line - thus the interest from FIFA.
According to FIFA, “If everything is perceived well enough, this goal-line technology will be widely used in the World Cup in 2010″
It will no doubt be a case of “when” rather than “whether” more high-end technology will be introduced in soccer… a sport that has traditionally been stubborn to change.
