The Buccaneers recorded an emphatic victory puts them in a commanding position in the return leg next weekend
Orlando Pirates beat Kaizer Chiefs 3-0 in Saturday’s MTN8 semi-final, first leg match at Orlando Stadium.
Zakhele Lepasa, Vincent Pule and Thembinkosi Lorch were on target to ensure a comfortable win for Pirates.
It was a huge victory for coach Josef Zinnbauer and his men as they put one foot into the final of this competition in their bid for their first piece of silverware since 2014.
The result triggered a Twitter frenzy with mixed opinions being expressed. Even South Africa‘s Minister of Finance Tito Mboweni added his voice in support of his Kaizer Chiefs, while trolling winners, Pirates.
Former Chiefs coach Steve Komphela, now senior coach at Mamelodi Sundowns, was also dragged into the Soweto derby and he moved in to exonerate himself when accused of being the source of Amakhosi’s woes.
Even The Great Coach Pitso Mosimane was going to fail at Kaizer chiefs. pic.twitter.com/E56NaKl844

Orlando Pirates annoys me.

Shame….I tried to raise the topic of @KaizerChiefs monumental loss against @orlandopirates. He said “Eish, the world is a sad place. Let’s not make it worse by dwelling on the negative.” I didn’t know he was a philosopher. We live and learn. https://t.co/dLicuwDY6C

I have suffered enough in my life to feel any pain.
I have prayed so hard to God to muzzle me.
I have struggled so hard to explain myself and couldn’t
A loving God has done just that; Gave me STRENGTH, Guided me out of darkness
I just love and love even more https://t.co/68wfXB4cC8— Steve Komphela (@komphelasteve) October 31, 2020
If you are going to church this morning, please pray for the cows from Naturena called Kaizer Chiefs.

A visual look at the ball movement that led to @orlandopirates’ Pule’s goal in the #MTN8 match against @KaizerChiefs. It took @orlandopirates 10 seconds from a free kick to scoring the goal. #MTN8 pic.twitter.com/6Fs8xTJZWZ

Let’s be honest hey, Champions league experience helped Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns to beat inexperienced Kaizer chiefs this season.. #MTN82020 #SowetoDerby pic.twitter.com/Zk4xK7InvK

I do think Kaizer chiefs will dominate and beat a lot of teams this season, even today they looked really good. They have quality young stars. Top 5 finish is possible
