Musa Nyatama of Orlando Pirates celebrates goal with teammates during the Absa Premiership match between Orlando Pirates and Free State Stars on the 13 April 2019 at Orlando Stadium.JOHANNESBURG - Orlando Pirates moved six points ahead of Mamelodi Sundowns in the South African Premiership title race Saturday after a 2-1 home win over lowly Free State Stars.
Musa Nyatama converted a penalty and Zambian Justin Shonga scored within seven minutes soon after half-time to put Pirates in control at Orlando Stadium in Soweto. Stars almost levelled twice as Pirates goalkeeper Wayne Sandilands pushed away a drive from Nyiko Mobbie before a Sifiso Mbhele bicycle-kick cross just evaded several players.
"We dominated the first half without making any impact in the final third and decided to push our full-backs forward after half-time," said Pirates coach Milutin Sredojevic.
I'm not a fan but Pirates have been a team to watch this season, either they win it or not, excellent performance throughout.
YES INDEED WE ALREADY 2018/19 PSL LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP, NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.
