Orlando Pirates came back from 2-0 down to beat SuperSport United 3-2 in their lively DStv Premiership clash at a wet Orlando Stadium on Wednesday night.
Things went from bad to worse for Pirates as Uited increased their lead 10 minutes later when Lungu outjumped Abel Mabaso to give goalkeeper Richard Ofori no chance with his powerful header.
Though they went 2-0 down early in the match, Pirates had notable chances from Deon Hotto, Goodman Mosele and Terrence Dzvukamanja but they could not get the better of Ronwen Williams. On the stroke of half time Pirates drew level with two quick penalties from Hotto after inexperienced Johannes was punished by referee Philangenkosi Khumalo for fouls.
