Orlando Pirates laboured to a 2-1 win over Polokwane City on Wednesday night to retain their place on top of the table.

The victory ensured Bucs have 44 games, the same as the defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns, who also beat Golden Arrows 2-1. However, the Brazilians have an inferior goal difference.

Have a look at what the fans said following the Sea Robbers’ victory against Rise and Shine in the mid-week Premier Soccer League outing.

Our conversion rate is biggest concern

There’s a Kaizer Chiefs fan who went outside to celebrate Polokwane City’s equaliser. When he came back, we were leading again – Esii Sihle

It’s very useless to win most of your league games when you are not even going to win it. There is no need, shame – Dear

We are grinding the results now. That’s how champions are made, boys! Now all we need is 3 points. Keep on carrying on, please. Forget about the negatives – Bongani

Our conversion rate remains our biggest area of concern. We’re creating more than enough chances and should be putting games to bed in the first half – Sphelele

Pirates won’t win the league unless the attitude changes in front of goals. When the title race is so competitive, you can’t afford to be so wasteful – Marksman

Tito is the best

Thank you, Relebohile Mofokeng and Patrick Maswanganyi. I was in panic mode, and you rescued me. Orlando Pirates family is happy – Mao Junior

Horrible Muddy Pitch. Wasn’t easy. We are still missing chances. Great show of character to not give up and let our heads drop. Mentality monsters! What a win!!! We remain humble – Nethomboniphin

Guys, Tito is the best. We have been underestimating him. He has saved us a lot – we need to give him flowers at the arena next week – Mr Dlamini

No man. Someone said Orlando Pirates must donate shots on target for Kaizer Chiefs. Such disrespect! – Lesedi

Sometimes, when we’re bored, we pass the first position to Mamelodi Sundowns, then we take it back – Victoria Sec
