At Orlando Pirates, success continues to flow smoothly. The club, still basking in the glory of their qualification for the semi-finals of the Champions League in Africa, has now secured a spot in the final of another competition, the MTN8. Despite drawing 1-1 with Kaizers Chiefs on Tuesday, Pirates advanced to the final having won the first leg 1-0.
In a match marked by Bernard Parker’s goal for Kaizers Chiefs and Lennox Bacela’s late equalizer from the penalty spot for Orlando Pirates, Roger Sa’s team demonstrated resilience to secure their place in the final. The upcoming showdown will see Orlando Pirates facing Platinium Stars, who emerged victorious against Bidvest Wits in the other semi-final.
The MTN8 is a prestigious competition with substantial rewards. The winner is set to claim a significant prize of one million dollars, adding extra excitement and motivation for both Orlando Pirates and Platinium Stars as they vie for the coveted title.
