OFC U19 Championship Overview

The Buccaneers mentor has delivered a blunt message to his squad, insisting he is not in the business of handing out appearances for the sake of sentiment. Following a tense MTN8 Cup victory, the Moroccan coach made it clear that the pressure in the Sea Robbers' hot seat leaves no room for experimentation.

Masandawana coach has broken his silence regarding the uncertain future of the talented winger, admitting the 22-year-old has turned down the chance to reintegrate into the first-team squad. The Bafana Bafana international appears determined to secure a move away from the South African giants following a period of tension on social media and a loan spell abroad.

The Bafana Bafana youngster came off the bench on the hour mark and scored his first league goal for the club just four minutes later to put his side 3-1 up. The goal follows on from his penalty shoot out winner from the week before when The Unionists lifted the Belgian Super Cup.

The Buccaneers coach confirmed that captain Nkosinathi Sibisi has joined the club’s injury list following a hard-fought MTN8 victory on Saturday. The defensive stalwart was forced off during the clash at Orlando Stadium, leaving the Buccaneers to navigate the second half without their primary leader at the back. The tactician also revealed the club's plans to integrate their new Norwegian striker into the match day squad.
