South Africa Match Against Japan Moved To Rand Stadium
The Bafana Bafana friendly international match against the Asian team has been moved from the Orlando Stadium...
The match will still be played on Saturday, November 14 with kick off in the afternoon.
The reason for the shift is that Orlando Stadium has a series of Absa Premiership matches lined up before the South Africa vs Japan clash, so there is a concern about the potential state of the pitch.
The Premier Soccer League has admitted the continual decline in the quality of the pitch at the Mecca of South African football – Orlando Stadium – is a concern, as the renovated stadium’s new field continues to undergo severe strain, according to Kickoff.com.
The match against Jamaica remains at Vodacom Park in Bloemfontein on Tuesday, November 17.
