Kabelo Dlamini scored a brace as<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/in-form-orlando-pirates-edge-closer-to-successful-nedbank-cup-defence-with-semi-final-win-over-chippa-united/bltde5345b709cff0d9" target="_blank"> Orlando Pirates beat Chippa United 3-1 </a>at Nelson Mandela Stadium on Saturday to reach the final of the Nedbank Cup.It was Dlamini's fifth goal across all competitions inside the space of a month, after struggling for game time earlier in the season. The Buccaneers coach Jose Riveiro who used to freeze him out has highly spoken of his attacker he says is not getting the recognition he deserves.

WHAT HAPPENED?

“I think KB is an excellent football player, he understands football very well, and he has the quality to execute it,” Riveiro told SuperSport TV.“But sometimes we don’t give him the flowers that he deserved, [he] is sometimes in the shadow. &nbsp;“But his contribution to this team in the last two seasons at least, it’s been excellent.&nbsp; And I think he didn’t touch [reach] his best capacity, he is going to still improve.”

WHAT RIVEIRO SAID

Dlamini's return to the Pirates starting lineup has frozen out Monnapule Saleng who is now coming in from the bench.Saleng even thought he had done enough to reclaim his place in the team with a brace against Kaizer Chiefs in the Soweto Derby. But Dlamini is now preferred by Riveiro to operate on the right side of the pitch.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The Buccaneers star will want to continue with his good patch of form when Pirates face Chippa United again but this time around in the Premier Soccer League at Orlando Stadium on Wednesday.His form comes at a time when the Soweto giants are pushing for a top-two finish in the league.
