Orlando Pirates Fives have won the SA TCL Cup five-a-side tournament which was held at Edenvale Indoor Soccer at the weekend.They will now travel to London for the international TCL Cup Road To Greatness finals taking place at the end of May, where they will train with Arsenal coaches, experience an exclusive tour of the Emirates Stadium, and compete against global finalists from across the world.
Orlando Pirates legend Benedict "Tso" Vilakazi has tipped the Soweto giants to pip perennial league kings Mamelodi Sundowns to the championship this season – believing the club can win all their remaining games, while he "fears the Brazilians can slip up".
Mamelodi Sundowns could take another step towards winning their record eighth Betway Premiership title should they beat struggling Richards Bay tomorrow. This will, however, be possible if Cape Town City and Orlando Pirates fail to beat Sekhukhune United and Kaizer Chiefs, respectively, this week.
Fadlu Davids is floating on cloud nine after his Simba SC side secured their place in the CAF Confederation Cup final. But amidst the euphoria, a simple text from an "important" Orlando Pirates official jolted him back to a painful chapter of his past.
Kaizer Chiefs will go to the much-anticipated Soweto derby against Orlando Pirates next Saturday having not won a league match in their last six outings after they lost 2-1 to Marumo Gallants at FNB Stadium on Saturday.
RT @SekhukhuneFc: This is how we line-up, to do battle with Orlando Pirates tonight.
