Who is taking it?


The Absa premiership title ends tomorrow! And there are three teams who are standing in the run to win it. Out of 16 PSL teams only three are now 90 minutes away from holding the Absa 2010\2011 premiership cup.


Kaizer Chiefs, who had a great run this season? They played their best most of the games but failed to perform on games that were very vital. They once were heading to the top of the PSL log and they drew 3 matches in a row. This was a huge disappointment for the team and the fans as they saw their dream becoming very blur. Now they have to play the last league match hoping that both the 1st & 2nd league position holders will lose or draw so that they can have the PSL title in their hands.


Well it’s just a little to late!


Orlando Pirates had an amazing 2010/2011 season. Football analyst’s believes that the buccaneers had the some of the best players in the league. Orlando Pirates coach- Ruud Krol had a feast of players to choose from and with no hesitation he did it well through out the whole season. Once he had his head nearly being chopped off but because of his passion and understanding for the game he managed to get over the pressure and he defeated all his critics. All the hard work he put in the team off the pitch really paid on the pitch. But the team let him down in a game they could have easily won. They could’ve been siting in 1st place. And for their last encounter all they had to do was wait for the final whistle after 90 minutes. But it’s now gone and they have to win and hope the 1st league position holders lose


So close, but yet so far!

Who thought the youngest team in the Absa Premiership would be sitting in 1st place. All I can say about these boys is, what a team-What a game(s). Ajax Cape Town really gave all soccer lovers 29 great matches. Even though they lost and drew some matches the 18 games that they won really were unbelievable. The fast movement of the ball, the quick game play, the dribbles and the team play was all entertaining and phenomenal football. The team is today sitting on top spot and have to win to claim their prize. I believe it’s already theirs. I mean the original Absa Premiership trophy will be in Cape Town and it will be a home match against a team that is sitting in 12th place.

Well done to the coach and the team for making life easier for themselves and making life hard for everyone else.


You deserve that trophy.
