With nine goals in two games it was difficult for the usually impassive Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro not to display some excitement about his dominant striking force.
Lethal Pirates scored five unanswered goals against Sekhukhune United in their MTN8 quarterfinal match at Orlando Stadium on Saturday night.
Bucs began their 2023-24 season with a somewhat flat 1-0 away league defeat against Stellenbosch FC they have bounced back, hitting top gear very quickly in their next two games. The dangerous Monnapule Saleng scored a goal in each match. The two players have been marvelous to watch alongside the influential young Relebohile Mofokeng, Patrick Maswanganyi and Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo in Bucs' irresistible attack. “So far you can see they are having fun. They are really enjoying playing together,” Riveiro said.
