PIC: Milford FC defeated Sekhukhune United of the 2026 Nedbank Cup quarter-finals at the Peter Mokaba Stadium

The Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane will play host to the 2026 Nedbank Cup final between Durban City and TS Galaxy on May 2, the second time it will stage the prestigious knockout final.
The Premier Soccer League will confirm the exact kick-off time in due course.
The venue was constructed ahead of the 2010 FIFA World Cup and, since then, has regularly hosted cup finals, Bafana Bafana internationals and dramatic league clashes.
Its design is inspired by the baobab tree, with giant corner structures meant to resemble tree trunks.
The first Nedbank Cup final played at the venue was a five-goal thriller between SuperSport United and Orlando Pirates in 2016.
SuperSport claimed a 3-2 victory in a pulsating final as Luvuyo Memela gave Pirates an early lead, before Jeremy Brockie, Bradley Grobler and Michael Boxall sent SuperSport into half-time 3-1 up.
A Clayton Daniels own goal early in the second period, as well as an injury to first-choice keeper Ronwen Williams, set up a dramatic finish, but Pirates could not grab an equaliser.

It has already played host to one extraordinary Nedbank Cup tie this season when second-tier Milford FC knocked Sekhukhune United out in the quarter-finals after a penalty shoot-out.
The state-of-the-art venue was built at a cost of R1.245 billion and is adjacent to the old Peter Mokaba Stadium, a smaller venue that sits across the road and has been home to Betway Premiership side Polokwane City this season.
Sekhukhune United have been tenants at the new Peter Mokaba Stadium for several seasons now, while the third side from Polokwane in the South African top flight, Magesi FC, play at Seshego Stadium.
The venue featured four games at the World Cup 16 years ago, including an upset win for Mexico over France (2-0) and Argentina’s 2-0 victory over Greece. Slovenia also beat Algeria 1-0, while Paraguay and New Zealand played to a goalless draw.
The first match played at the new Peter Mokaba Stadium was on 23 January 2010, when SuperSport beat Danish side Brondby 2-1 in a friendly clash, while the first international saw Bafana Bafana defeat Guatemala 5-0, at the time their biggest ever victory.
The stadium has a capacity of 45,500 and has also been regularly used by various PSL clubs as an alternate home venue, including SuperSport and Kaizer Chiefs.
Peter Mokaba Stadium is one of 12 different venues used for the Nedbank Cup final in the 19 editions since 2008, but is in a select group that have held two deciders.
Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban has hosted five finals, while Orlando Stadium and Mbombela Stadium have also hosted two each.
