Talking to Soccer Laduma in an exclusive interview, legend Lucky Lekgwathi discusses how he feels PSL clubs raise their games against Orlando Pirates, after losing other matches.
In the three DStv Premiership games for Orlando Pirates so far, they have had three different results starting with a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Stellenbosch FC, a 4-2 win over Royal AM and a one all draw against Chippa United. But they also recorded a resounding 5-0 MTN8 win over Sekhukhune United.Despite these results, former double-treble winning captain Lucky Lekgwathi has high expectations for the current crop of Pirates players.
"Eish. It's difficult and very hard playing for Orlando Pirates. Every team comes hard on Pirates. A team can lose a simple game in the previous match but when they come to face Pirates they change and pull up their socks," Lekgwathi told Soccer Laduma. Lekgwathi then added that teams like Stellenbosch FC will see a different Pirates when the two teams meet in the MTN8 semi-finals.
