Bucs' Stats Against Esperance Revealed

Bucs' Stats Against Esperance Revealed

Orlando Pirates registered an unbelievable one shot on target as they went 2-0 down to Esperance in their CAF Champions League Group B clash away from home.

Having struggled from the first kick of the ball, the Buccaneers were a goal down at half-time and it wasn't until much later in the second half that – through Vincent Pule – that the South African tested Esperance goalkeeper Rami Jridi.

Overall, Pirates had five attempts, but only one of them came close to testing the goalkeeper, a pretty poor return for a side that came into the game as log leaders.
