He will formally decide the fate of this encounter.”
Saudi Arabia and Qatar Bid to Host the African Super Cup The source further revealed, “Patrice Motsepe was briefed on the offers from Saudi Arabia and Qatar during the latest Executive Committee meeting.
Subsequently, he was tasked with choosing the appropriate host and then assigning the responsibility of determining the timing to the Competitions Committee.”
