Watch: Orlando Pirates 3–0 Gallants – Buccaneers cruise to comfortable league win

Orlando Pirates delivered a composed and commanding performance to secure a 3–0 victory over Marumo Gallants in their Betway Premiership encounter, Afrik Foot reports.

This shows their title credentials with an assured display from start to finish.

The Buccaneers wasted no time in asserting control, moving the ball quickly and forcing Gallants onto the back foot.

Their early dominance paid off when Yanela Mbuthuma opened the scoring with a neat finish, rewarding Pirates’ bright start and setting the tone for the evening.

Pirates continued to dictate proceedings and doubled their advantage before Patrick Maswanganyi’s breakthrough, reacting quickest inside the box to steer home and give the hosts a healthy cushion going into half-time.

Gallants showed more intent after the restart but struggled to break down Pirates’ well-organised defence, with most of their attempts coming from distance. The hosts remained patient and disciplined, waiting for openings as the game wore on.
