Have a look at what their supporters said after the win that ensured they remain in the race to defend their crown.
‘Subs messed Pirates’ game’

On behalf of the whole of South Africa, we are proud of having a team like Orlando Pirates in Mzansi – Nonhlanhla Dube
Deon Hotto is a beast! Bro is super fit and never disappoints. So consistent – Nonhlanhla Dube
After the substitutions our play was messed up, we were nearly punished because of all those players that came from the bench – Kea Soso
Why is Karim Kimvuidi failing in every game? He is so casual and not improving even when given a chance – Lesiba Lelahane
We were criticizing coach Jose Riveiro for not fielding certain players but at some point, he was right..they Do not deserve to be in the starting 11 – Villa
Why don’t Pirates score more goals?

Honestly, there is something that the coach doesn't see in Evidence Makgopa. You have a striker that can dribble, turn, and has a good first touch but lacks the scoring abilities and you still play him as a striker? Give Makgopa that number 8 role and you'll see wonders – Tshiamo Riggs Sondlane
Monnapule Saleng, Miguel Timm, Goodman Mosele and Olisa Ndah should come back to the team, we're tired of that weak bench – Teekay Siba
I hope people who always complain about the coach playing the same starting lineup realized why he does so in the second half. Some players don't deserve to play for Pirates – Sehlooho Sehlooho
Yes we won, we had to bounce back but I honestly feel players like Kimvuidu are just not Pirates material. He should just be released. Our second half was just lackluster – Mtshweni Chikoya Sheriff
We are happy people, but with that performance, we will never win against the best teams. Who said when we lead we should not create chances or score more goals? – Rev-Jobby Pirates Maletswa
