The decisive moment came through Kamogelo Sebelebele, who found the back of the net to secure all three points for the Buccaneers. The victory comes as a relief for Pirates, who had stumbled in their previous two league outings with defeats against Marumo Gallants and Sekhukhune United.
Sebelebele has quickly become a standout performer since joining the Sea Robbers this season. The youngster has already proven his worth, having scored a crucial equaliser in the first leg of the MTN8 semi-final against Mamelodi Sundowns last Saturday.
With confidence boosted by this hard-fought win, Pirates will now turn their attention to Saturday’s highly anticipated second leg of the MTN8 semi-final against Sundowns. The clash promises to be a defining moment in their campaign, as the Buccaneers look to defend their champion.
