The tragic accident on the N1 that has claimed 28 lives in Limpopo has also affected the Telkom Knockout clash between Baroka FC and Golden Arrows.

The match was scheduled to take place at 3.30pm on Saturday, but kickoff has now been moved to 8.15pm at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.

The Premier Soccer League announced on Saturday morning that Arrows were delayed on the N1 following the bus accident between Kranskop and Modimolle on Friday.

The PSL said that Arrows only arrived at their hotel in Polokwane on Saturday morning after the marathon trip from Durban.

The rest of the Telkom Knockout fixtures remain the same.

Lamontville Golden Arrows were stuck for hours on the N1 following the tragic bus accident that claimed over 20 lives last night. The club only arrived at the hotel this morning after spending the better part of the night on the N1
