When Pirates Humiliated Tottenham Hotspur

When Pirates Humiliated Tottenham Hotspur

It was in 2003 when English giants Tottenham Hotspur travelled to South Africa to begin their pre-season campaign and were set to do battle against Orlando Pirates.

They had no idea what they were getting themselves into, and the Buccaneers produced one of the most entertaining displays in local football history.

At their menacing best, the likes of Sailor Tshabalala, Steve Lekoelea and Thabo Mngomeni recited almost every single trick in the "kasi flavour" manual and teased their English counterparts relentlessly.

In this throwback moment, watch Sailor Tshabalala pull of four "tsamayas" in quick succession, clearly upsetting the Spurs man marking him. Enjoy! 

 

What was your favourite moment in that iconic game?
