#23: The Derby of the Motherland - Soweto Derby

On this episode of Can I Kick it, we focus on the most known derby in Africa. The Soweto Derby is a game contested between The Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs in South Africa. We give the origins of both teams, how the derby got started, and more.

Bio: Can I Kick it is a brand new podcast built on telling the stories of Black athletes, coaches, and owners that have impacted the game of soccer on and off the pitch. With all the wonderful footballers from Africa, Europe, The Caribbeans, and The Americas, it is shocking to see that no one has made a podcast dedicated to them.
