There was huge excitement when the Premier Soccer League (PSL) announced that the MTN8 final will once again be played in Durban. This is a neutral venue for both the finalists. Pirates who are based in Johannesburg, and their opponents, Stellies, who are a Cape Town team. 

Pirates have become kings of this cup

The Buccaneers have somewhat become kings of this Wafa-Wafa cup. This after winning three trophies in the last four instalments of the competition.

They are now gunning for their fourth. Pirates reached the final, knocking out SuperSport United 3-1 in the quarterfinals. They then dumped Cape Town City out over two legs with an aggregate 3-1 score to book their place in the final. 

Stellies started by hammering TS Galaxy 3-1 in the first round. This was before shocking Mzansi with a home and away victory over PSL defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns. Both matches ended with a 1-0 win, which meant 2-0 in aggregate for the Cape Town side. 

A press conference will be held soon to provide further details on security arrangements, entertainment plans, and match logistics.
