'While Others Are Finding It Difficult To Reach 40 Points, Bucs Are Soldiering On'

'While Others Are Finding It Difficult To Reach 40 Points, Bucs Are Soldiering On'

Orlando Pirates' Augustine Mulenga opened his goalscoring account when he netted the winner to give the Buccaneers victory over Bloemfontein Celtic on Wednesday night.

Pirates were leading 1-0 going into the break, but it wasn't long before Lorenzo Gordinho, who came through with his only goal for the Free State outfit so far, levelled matters just four minutes into the second half.

Mulenga, who came on as a substitute, became a hero for the Bucs faithful when he led the Buccaneers to a 2-1 victory with his strike.

The Soweto giants' win saw them remain in second place on the log, while Mamelodi Sundowns managed to maintain their lead with a win over Chippa United.

Supporters Club members have reacted to the Buccaneers' win and performance.

"Thanks to Micho and the technical team. Now we will be back where we belong, playing in the Champions League. With a few additions to the squad, the likes of Khuzwayo, Motshwari and Hlatshwayo, we will win the second star." – SowetoBOY

"Well done to the mighty Buccaneers. While others are finding it difficult to reach 40 points, Bucs are soldiering on, fighting to be number one." – Msheke_Sheke

"Thanks to Micho's tactics, they worked well when introducing Gabuza to press the defence and Mulenga to poach points." – Daniel Madenza Kutumela

"It is good for a team to have mentality players who are able to make the game look different coming from the bench." – LeCowhlohlo

"Well done boys, just keep on focusing on one game at a time. Shapa Juju Nation, shapa! Up the Bucs." – Abristo123
