Dedebit FC & St. George to clash in Ethiopian Super Cup Final on Saturday
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia- Ethiopian Premier League champions St. George FC  will square off with Ethiopian Cup holder Dedebit FC  at the Abebe Bikila Stadium here on Saturday to determine the 2009/10 Ethiopia Super Cup winner. ÂÂ
 When the two teams met in the Ethiopia Cup final this past June, the match ended in controversy and chaos. Dedebit FC was declared winner after the referee sent off 5 St. George players for various offenses, leaving the EPL champions with just 6 players. ÂÂ
 FIFA rule states that a team has to have at least 7 players on the field. As a result, Dedebit clinched the title by forfeit. ÂÂ
The decision enraged Saints’ fans and their efforts to invade the pitch were only prevented by the large police force present at the game.   ÂÂ
Following the June debacle, the two teams met once again this past week, where St. George defeated Dedebit 3-0 in the Addis Ababa City Cup Group B match.ÂÂ
