Overview of fixtures staged in South Africa's city of roses otherwise known as Bloemfontein
“The city of roses”, Mangaung (Bloemfontein) will be hosting the 2010 soccer games at the Free State soccer stadium.
The name of the stadium derives from the province in which it is located, South Africa’s Free State Province.
The 2010 World Cup will not be the first time that the Free State stadium has been used for international events.
