Premier Soccer League (PSL) chairman Irvin Khoza has announced that there’s going to be a DStv Compact Cup, which is going to be played in January.
Four teams – Coastal 1, Coastal 2, Inland 1 and Inland 2 – are going to compete for the DStv Compact Cup from 22 to 29 January.
Lamontville Golden Arrows, AmaZulu, Royal AM and Maritzburg United form Coastal 1, Chippa United, Cape Town City, Stellenbosch FC and Baroka are in Coastal 2.
Inland 2 is made up of Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, Swallows FC and TS Galaxy while Mamelodi Sundowns, SuperSport United, Sekhukhune United and Marumo Gallants form Inland 1.
Each team from the four streams is going to be asked to avail players and supporters are going to choose teams by looking at combinations they think are the best. The supporters are also going to select the technical teams – coaches and assistants.
Each team will have eight defenders, eight midfielders, four strikers, two goalkeepers and four Diski Challenge players.
Khoza also announced that independent doctors and physiotherapists are going to assist during the matches.
A total of four matches – two semi-finals, third and fourth place play-off and the final – are going to be played with the overall winners walking away with R1 million.
