Goals from Sibusiso Vilakazi, Tapelo Xoki from a penalty spot and Terrence Dzvukamanja, provided the much-needed delight and entertainment in the game that looked destined for extra time and even penalties.
Babina Noko surprised everyone with their approach, as they took the game to their more fancied opponents instead of playing a low block, as expected. Coach Brandon Truter’s charges have been one of the stingy teams in terms of conceding goals this season.
Despite the defeat, coach Truter will look to bounce back and take a lot of positives from the magnificent campaign they’ve had, despite him joining the team well into the season. This was his first cup final, in his first season at the club, while he took both Swallows FC and AmaZulu FC to the MTN8 semi-finals before parting ways with both of them, respectively.
Orlando Pirates, on the other hand, had a season to remember, as their new coach, Jose Riveiro led his charges to two cup final wins and finished second on the log, to take the Buccaneers back to CAF Champions League football. This was all achieved in his first season with the club. The Spaniard will be looking to do even better in the next campaign, having familiarized himself with the DStv Premiership.
With that brief summary of the weekend's results, have a go at selecting your Team of the Week and see how close you get to the official Soccer Laduma selection.
