The versatile South Africa international has been a key player for the Sea Robbers, who are seemingly ready to dominate the local footballing scene, thanks to the inconsistencies by Mamelodi Sundowns, who have won the last eight Premier Soccer League titles. The Buccaneers are currently joint top in the logdespite playing a game less.
The Buccaneers travelled to Stade Frédéric Kibassa Maliba on Sunday, 19 October, hoping to secure a first-leg advantage against the Railmen. But the hosts had other plans, showing no mercy and seizing a crucial home win that leaves the Sea Robbers with work to do in the return leg at Orlando Stadium.
GOAL digs deep into the stats and numbers to find which players have performed the best in their positions in the nascent league season and it is safe to say there were some surprises we were not expecting across the pitch.
Two days after sealing their place in the next round of the CAF Champions League, the Buccaneers must swiftly refocus as league duties beckon. Their upcoming clash against TS Galaxy promises fireworks, with both sides chasing consistency in a season marked by highs and lows.
It was an afternoon of two Buccaneers players scoring a double each for a 4-0 win at Orlando Stadium on Saturday to ease through to the next round of this continental competition following a 7-0 aggregate result. The big victory was a statement win by the Soweto giants who continue with their bid to win this tournament for the first time since 1995.
The giants of Soweto are back on the continental stage. The Buccaneers and Amakhosi are diving into CAF action with fire, pride and unfinished business. Expect drama, big dreams and fierce battles as they chase African glory and write the next chapter of their legacy.
