Pirates winger Pule out of Platinum clash

Vincent Pule will miss tonight's Caf Champions League clash against FC Platinum at the Orlando Stadium tonight.


The winger received his fourth yellow card of the competition in Bucs’ previous match against Esperance and is suspended for the clash against the Zimbabwean outfit.

“Following his 4th yellow card, received against @ESTuniscom, Vincent Pule will serve his single match,” confirmed Pirates through their official Twitter account.

Pule has been a key figure in Micho Sredojevic’s squad since the beginning of the season and his absence will be missed.

However, Bucs have a number of players that could fill the void left by Pule, with the likes of Kudakwashe Mahachi and Luvuyo Memela having recently returned into action after recovering from injury.
