    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Relebohile Mofokeng scored a stinger which was Orlando Pirates' second goal in the 2-0 Premier Soccer League victory over TS Galaxy at Mbombela Stadium on Tuesday.

    It was a shot struck from outside the box into the top corner, giving the Rockets' Ivorian goalkeeper Ira Tape no chance.

    Interestingly 11 years ago, Mofokeng's father Sechaba scored a similar goal, launched from the same position.

    Mofokeng Snr's goal was for then third-tier side Tembu Royals as they knocked AmaZulu out of the 2013 Nedbank Cup at the Last-32 round.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Mofokeng's goal was not the only beautiful strike of the evening as Thalente Mbatha had opened the scoring for the Buccaneers with a low drive from outside the 18-area.

    It was Mofokeng's first league goal of the season in six starts and he has two others in four MTN8 appearances and one in the Caf Champions League.

    The Bafana Bafana starlet continues to grow in confidence, having established himself as a key Pirates player.
