Orlando Pirates’ winless run stretched to four games across all competitions after playing out to a goalless draw against 10-man Maritzburg United at Harry Gwala Stadium yesterday.
The Buccaneers last won against Chippa United last month. Yesterday’s stalemate was their fourth in the Dstv Premiership this season. Just seven minutes post the hour-mark, the hosts were reduced to 10 men when referee Abongile Tom issued a straight red card to Brandon Theron for hacking down Thabang Monare.
The first stanza was evenly-balanced in terms of ball retention but Pirates created more chances. Paseka Mako and Sam were Bucs’ best players in the half, combining brilliantly on the left flank. At the other end, Lefa Hlongwane made Maritzburg tick, using his skill to slice through Pirates’ right side, where Shandu operated, with centre-back Olisa Ndah also drifting out of his slot at the heart of defence to help him contain the speedy Hlongwane.
