Miami, Florida (July 14, 2013) – July 14 marks Independence Day in France, but far away in South Africa and in Indonesia respectively, this date marks Manchester City and Arsenal’s start of their 2013/14 pre-season tour. How exciting it is to see these two English Premier League clubs warm-up for the big kick-off of the EPL campaign come August 17, 2013! For this reason, Live Soccer TV presents to you accurate live stream and TV schedules of Sunday’s friendlies.
Manchester City arrived in South Africa on Saturday for the Nelson Mandela Football Invitational. The football match against SuperSport United, which will unfold as 94-year-old South African icon Mandela remains hospitalized, will be Manuel Pellegrini’s first since quitting Spanish club Malaga earlier this summer.
The Citizens are expected to field a rather strong squad with stars like Barcelona admire Kun Aguero, new signings Jesus Navas and Fernandinho, skipper Vincent Kompany and goalkeeper Joe Hart receiving some playing time at the delight of home supporters.
However, several fringe players are likely to be given an opportunity at the Loftus Versveld, as nine changes will be allowed for both sides during the game. The money received from this pre-season friendly will go to 10 schools in Qunu, Eastern Cape.
Far away in Indonesia, Arsenal will come up against Indonesia. They will be hoping to kick start their summer campaign on a better note than Manchester United who lost 1-0 to Singha All Star XI on July 13. The Gunners can expect an electric atmosphere at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium which can accommodate 88,000 spectators. The excitement in the crowd will certainly match the hot weather.
