Downs coach heaps praises on Bucs goalie: While Orlando Pirates fans hissed goalkeeper Sipho Chaine whenever he attempted to help the team build from the back in their Saturday's 1-0 home defeat to Mamelodi Sundowns, the Brazilians’ coach Rulani Mokwena…
Scoring his seventh league goal of the campaign, Cassius Mailula was on target as Sundowns managed to win their 15th game on the trot. The victory also meant the Tshwane giants now need a measly 11 points from their remaining nine games to wrap up their sixth successive title.
Quizzed why the normally high-scoring fixture produced a solitary goal at Orlando Stadium on Saturday, Mokwena praised Pirates keeper Chaine’s ability to build from the back, hinting that didn’t allow Sundowns to dictate terms as they usually do against DStv Premiership rivals. “I think Chaine makes a big difference in the profile of Pirates. He gives them an extra man and I understand a little bit the anxiety that comes with that [a keeper playing from the back] because it’s not normal,” Mokwena said.
