Sundowns vs Barcelona game confirmed

The worst kept secret in South African soccer was authenticated on Monday when Mamelodi Sundowns sponsors MTN announced that the PSL champions over the past two seasons would be playing celebrated Spanish giants FC Barcelona at Loftus next Wednesday.

Sundowns president Patrice Motsepe had boasted about the impending fixture two weeks ago at a club celebration following the retention of the Premier League title -- revealing in all but name that the Pretoria club had secured a veritable coup by bringing Barcelona to South Africa with former 'World Player of the Year' Ronaldinho and the rest of their conglomerate of international stars like Samuel Eto'o, Leonel Messi and Deco.

And while the MTN release that next week's drawcard would draw "millions of soccer fans to Loftus" went more than a little overboard, there is no doubting the enormity of an occasion that is seen also in the context of the "war" with cellphone rivals Vodacom.

It was only last week that Vodacom-sponsored Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates announced they would be bringing out English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur to compete in next month's pre-season Vodacom Challenge - and the Barcelona gambit is seen as upstaging this initiative.Ronaldinho © Action Images

CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE

What prompted many to doubt Motsepe's declaration is the fact that Barcelona are still at this moment engaged in a desperate, but what now appears forlorn battle to retain Spain's championship title when they play their last La Liga game of the season against relegation-doomed Gimnastic on Sunday.

Barcelona and their great rivals, Real Madrid, currently have the same number of points in the title race, but although Barcelona have a far superior goal-difference, the system used in Spain to decide the championship when teams are level on points is firstly by taking into account head-to-head results between the teams.

And utilising this method instead of that which is practiced in most other countries means that Real Madrid will be champions if they beat Mallorca in a home game on Sunday.

Hey there, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.

When I look at your website in Chrome, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, wonderful blog!

I'm amazed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that's both equally educative and
engaging, and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that too few folks are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that I stumbled across this during my
hunt for something concerning this.

Hi there! I realize this is somewhat off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does building a well-established website like yours take
a massive amount work? I'm completely new to blogging but I do write in my diary on a daily basis. I'd like
to start a blog so I will be able to share my own experience and thoughts online.

Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Appreciate it!
