The 'Blanquiverde' squad will play their first away preseason match, traveling to Marbella to face Orlando Pirates, a historic South African football club. This encounter will serve as a demanding test for Iván Ania's players.
Orlando Pirates boasts an impressive record, including ten League titles, 14 MTN8 titles, two League Cups, ten South African Cups, and one African Champions League. Currently, the South African team holds the titles for League, Cup, and MTN8.
The match, scheduled for Wednesday, July 15th, at 7:00 PM at the Marbella Football Center, will not be televised. However, Córdoba CF will broadcast the game live via its YouTube channel. Attendance at the venue will cost 12 euros for fans wishing to watch in person.
Several Orlando Pirates players recently participated with South Africa in the World Cup, where they reached the round of 16. Although some players have been transferred, the team retains six World Cup participants. However, these players are not expected to be available for the match against Córdoba CF due to their recent tournament participation.
The match can be followed online through ABC Córdoba, which will provide live, minute-by-minute coverage, including statistics, commentary, match reports, and summaries.
