Orlando Pirates beat AmaZulu 2-0 to go top of the Premier Soccer League table with 35 points, three more than second-placed defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns.
Relebohile Mofokeng’s strike coupled with a Darren Johnson own goal was all the Sea Robbers needed to get maximum points at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
Have a look at the reactions from the Afrik-Foot readers as the Buccaneers extended their unbeaten run in PSL to 13 games.
Pirates are always sluggish when Mbatha is subbed

What has Mbatha done to the coach? Bro has been balling since the start of the second round, but hardly finishes a game. Coaches need to review this sub. Really dropping the ball here. Team is always sluggish when he is taken off – Bongani
Relebohile Mofokeng is still the best player in South Africa. No one comes close to him. He is in a league of his own. Special player, special talent, special qualities. It’s either Barcelona, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Liverpool, or nothing else – Omolemo Steazyy Modise
Our neighbors Kaizer Chiefs are wondering why they didn’t find Relebohile Mofokeng before Orlando Pirates – Pita S Mohale
Coach Abdeslam Ouaddou must allow Thalente Mbatha to play a full 90 min, the guy gives structure to that Orlando Pirates midfield – Goodman Trevor Mpofu
No one can stop us. Even Arsenal and Barcelona can’t; we are unstoppable and very dangerous. Give us our league – Palesa Patience Moorosi
Mofokeng to end the season as the top scorer?

I am happy for the three points, combination play was good as well, we just need to be more clinical in front of the goal – Banele Mabutho
Coach Ouaddou learnt to keep Mofokeng for the full-time and play him with Oswin Appolis, and now he’s benefiting. Hugo Broos could benefit too if he trusts Rele – Amandla Galeni
After Mbatha was subbed, we lost control in the middle. Mofokeng will end the season as our top goalscorer in the league – Sekgala Ten Ten
Can anyone explain why Amazulu FC were playing so hard, pound for pound, with Pirates? – Mbunquka Mkhuseli Lakusta
A tired Moremi is better than a fresh Daniel Msendami; otherwise, Andre de Jong is playing his heart out. Thankyou boys for the 3 points.
