Photo: AYANDA NDAMANE Independent Media Orlando Pirates are on the brink of history as they chase an unprecedented quadruple under head coach Jose Riveiro , who is set to part ways with the club at the end of the season.
Known for his tactical discipline and calm demeanour, the Spanish coach has already delivered silverware in previous campaigns – five, to be exact.The Sea Robbers have not shown remarkable consistency in the Premiership, but could go neck-and-neck with long-time rivals Mamelodi Sundowns in a fierce title race if they win their games in hand.
Their continental journey has captured the imagination of fans and revived memories of their historic 1995 triumph. With the MTN8 trophy already secured earlier in the season – their third under Riveiro – the Buccaneers are arguably 10 wins away from achieving what is regarded to be impossible.
