The Glamour Boys completed a double
over Moroka Swallows during last season with scintillating performances in two
matches that produced a total of nine goals.
The Glamour Boys, coming from the
back of a defeat in the first leg of MTN8 against Orlando Pirates, will want to
redeem themselves against Moroka Swallows and help keep their record in the
league intact following a win against Black Aces in the league opener.
Marketing Director Jessica Motaung
commented; “Moroka Swallows is coming to our turf at a wrong time following the
defeat against Orlando Pirates. We are looking to bounce back immediately from
the defeat. Once again the supporters have been magnificent to the team by
rallying behind the Team on Saturday. We always feel stronger when we have the
supporters on our side as has always been the case.
The game also marks our first league
game at home in 2013/2014 season and we promise to give the supporters a
memorable Amakhosi experience. We will have activations by the Supporters Club
and in partnership with our sponsors we will give the supporters a memorable
experience at all our home games,” added Jessica.
Corporate Communications Vina Maphosa
revealed that the players and everyone in the team is not fazed following the
defeat on Saturday; “The players were understandably disappointed after the
game but now that is water under the bridge. It is another Soweto derby and
there is a lot at stake. This is a game that evokes a lot of memories from both
set of fans.
We got the better of Moroka Swallows
last season, both at home and away but we all know that when it comes to
Derbies the past results are thrown out of the window. It will be a different
ball game.
We would like once more to invite
Amakhosi faithful to join us at FNB Stadium on Tuesday. The ticket sales have
been going well and it has been encouraging to see supporters buying tickets to
come and rally behind the team,” added Maphosa.
Tickets are sold at Computicket and
Shoprite/Checkers for R40. Gates open at 4:00PM and kickoff for the game is at 7:30PM.
