‘Without Mofokeng Bafana at AFCON will be Chiefs! He should be in EPL’

Published on by

Orlando Pirates went joint top on the Premier Soccer League table thanks to a hard-fought 2-0 win over Chippa United.

Goals from Evidence Makgopa and Oswin Appollis were enough to help the Sea Robbers take their points’ tally to 25, the same as leaders and defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns who have played a game more.

Afrik-Foot sampled the reactions from the fans after Tuesday’s outing. Have a look at what they said.

Mofokeng has De Bruyne’s eye

Relebohile Mofokeng can definitely break the lines of a very good defensive low block from Chippa. Let’s give it to him; something that will be needed in AFCON when Sipho Mbule is not showing up against Egypt –  Tumisho Bra-Nellz Peteke 

Here’s another difference between these Pirates and past seasons Pirates, defend with a low block, we hit you from the bench – Ratombo Ntapi Ramatapa 

Relebohile Mofokeng’s pass can even find George Matlou hiding on the bench – Bongani Tembe 

I really don’t understand why Mofokeng is not playing in the Premier League, that’s some Kevin De Bruyne’s eye – Deholeniey X Swengz 

At AFCON, Bafana Bafana without Relebohile Mofokeng will be Kaizer Chiefs – Tefu Otto 

Pirates are title contenders

In the national team Mamelodi Sundowns will defend and control the tempo of the game, Pirates will attack then Kaizer Chiefs fans will fill stadiums fair and square – Lindokuhle Mashumi

For the first time in many years I think Orlando Pirates are title contenders – Bhakaniya TD Ndlondlo

A lot of teams could stop unstoppable Orlando Pirates if there were no second half in football – Tman Mehlabe 

The Terminator is no longer a plumber, Orlando Pirates are scary – Kabelo Moseki 

Chiefs fans can’t rest from the pain of watching same players score for both Pirates and Bafana Bafana – Vince Manaka
