Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has had enough of the commentary from the sidelines. South African football legends keep telling him how to run his team. They say skills are culture. They say showboating is Diski. They say ban the tricks and you kill the game. Teboho Moloi was the
Thapelo Mokobodi didn’t just play well for Orlando Pirates. He stole the show. The 23-year-old, signed from Stellenbosch this window, walked off Royal Bafokeng Stadium with Man of the Match after Orlando Pirates’ 2-0 win over Marumo Gallants. And coach Abdeslam Ouaddou could barely contain himself. “Even though I don’t
Lebohang Maboe is Kaizer Chiefs’ only Bafana Bafana player right now, but he might not stay that way. Fernando Da Cruz confirmed the midfielder had to come off injured during Chiefs’ 0-0 grind against Golden Arrows — the same game where Maboe missed a first-half penalty. “We changed position for
Orlando Pirates just keep rolling. Bottom-placed Marumo Gallants were brushed aside 2-0 on Sunday as the Buccaneers stayed unbeaten and climbed to 19 points — breathing down Sundowns’ necks. This wasn’t pretty. It was professional. Ruthless. Exactly what a title contender does on the road. The opener that killed the

Orlando Pirates are in Rustenburg this afternoon with the log table in mind. Marumo Gallants are there with survival in mind. Royal Bafokeng Stadium is the venue, and the game is a Betway Premiership clash. The Buccaneers need points to eat into Mamelodi Sundowns’ lead. Bottom-placed Gallants still need a
Kaizer Chiefs defender Thabo Moloisane is not talking style. He is talking the table. Chiefs go to Mbombela on Sunday to face Golden Arrows at a neutral ground. Last week Polokwane held them 1-1. AmaZulu jumped them and they dropped to fourth place. Two draws in games they think they
Papi Zothwane said the pressure never left. But on Saturday it paid out. Sekhukhune United beat Richards Bay 3-2 at Princess Magogo Stadium. Zothwane’s first league win since he replaced Cedric Kaze. Two draws to start — TS Galaxy, Stellenbosch — then this: control, collapse, late smash-and-grab. Ellis Rammala settled
Siphesihle Ndlovu has drawn the line for Kaizer Chiefs. Beat Golden Arrows on Sunday, or start watching the top of the Betway Premiership from further back. Chiefs are unbeaten after six league games — three wins, three draws, 12 points, fourth on the log table. One point off second. Eight
