Orlando Pirates disturbingly lacklustre and lucky to draw against Stellenbosch marc_strydom

Such performances could well contribute to Bucs’ management asking questions on coach Joseph Zinnbauer’s future at the club into next season.

Steve Barker’s ambitious Stellenbosch are no slouches anywhere, and especially tough to meet in the Winelands. But the manner in which they were able to open Pirates almost at will in the opening half, pepper shots at goal, and miss open nets twice, was well below standard from a team of Bucs’ stature.

From the half-hour it became a procession of chances to Stellenbosch. Granwald Scott's punt up-field saw Du Preez too easily run free of Bucs' centrebacks, midfield Abel Mabaso recovering for the challenge, with a hint of a penalty being in the offing. Pirates finally managed a clear chance, and it was a good one, Kabelo Dlamini's free-kick from the right rattling the crossbar.
