Orlando Pirates are on the brink of another tasty cash windfall as thoughts shift towards a Nedbank Cup final against Sundowns.
The Buccaneers have become cup specialists under Jose Riveiro. They’ve won consecutive MTN8 crowns and are just a single match away from making it a double-double by scooping Nedbank Cup glory in 2024. The Sea Robbers are also embroiled in a race for a top-two finish in the league, facing stern competition from an impressive Stellenbosch team.Pirates have leaned heavily on the goal-scoring form of Tshegofatso Mabasa and, to a lesser extent, Patrick Maswanganyi this term.
Patrick Maswanganyi has played a stellar supporting role in the number 10 position, scoring five goals and supplying five assists in the league. Three goals and three assists in four Nedbank Cup appearances make him arguably the tournament’s best player this term. Sundowns are the final barrier between them and the riches of Nedbank Cup glory. They’ll land R7 Million if they win it., AmaZulu is closing in on the signing of rumoured Chiefs and Pirates target Shaune Mogaila.
