Orlando Pirates youth development coordinator, Yster Khomane, has urged all South Africans to rally behind the team in their quest to do well in the CAF Champions League final first leg against Al Ahly on Saturday.

Khomane was an outstanding defender who spent almost a decade at Pirates, during his heyday as a professional footballer in the 80's.
He was followed by his son, Papi, who also became an integral member of Pirates during his time at the club in the late 90's and early 2000's.
"This is a big game for Orlando Pirates and the country at large. Pirates are no longer just playing for the club, but for the whole of Mzansi. We need that second star, and I would like to urge all South Africans to unite and support Pirates this weekend," said Khomane.
