OFFICIAL: PSL Postpone All Fixtures Scheduled for 13 & 14 February

OFFICIAL: PSL Postpone All Fixtures Scheduled for 13 & 14 February – The Premier Soccer League has decided to postpone the restart of the second half of the season. This decision comes after the South African team, Bafana Bafana, finished third in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, which was held in Ivory Coast.

The postponement of the league’s restart is likely because many players from various teams would have participated in the national team campaign during the tournament. This would have led to potential scheduling conflicts and fatigue among players, leading to the decision to delay the league’s resumption.

The African Cup of Nations is a major international tournament and the performance of the national team is a source of pride for South African football. Bafana Bafana’s success in the tournament may also have generated increased interest and support for the team, which could affect attendance and viewership of domestic league matches.

The decision to postpone the restart of the league demonstrates the league’s recognition of the importance of allowing players adequate rest and recovery following their duties with the national team. It also shows consideration for the impact of the national team’s performance on the national football landscape.
