Signed from Club Bolivar in the January transfer window, Saavedra was playing just his third game for the Pretoria giants before being replaced by Thabiso Kutumela. “If we have no possibilities of using the strikers, that’s the situation presented to us and therefore we’ve got to find different solutions to the problems.

“But it is what it is. It depends how you want to look at it, and I always say life is about perspective — it depends which pair of glasses you want to use,” said Mokwena. “And of course it’s only a matter of time before Peter scores. We know his qualities and what he gives to the team. It’s not just about putting the ball into the back of the net.

My children crying themselves to sleep because they sleep hungry cripples me as a man. Not knowing where your next meal will come from is heartbreaking. I ask for any food nearing their expiry date or mealie meal. Just so my children can eat 🙏🏻😭
