Micho gives Nyatama a nickname

Musa Nyatama’s fine display during Orlando Pirates 3-1 victory over Baroka FC at the Orlando Stadium saw him being heaped with praise by head coach Micho Sredojovedic who also gave him a nickname ‘Musalinho’.


The midfielder scored Bucs first goal during the game before Luvuyo Memela’s brace and he got the Man-of-the-Match award for his input.

“I am very happy with the result today (Saturday) and also with how Musa Nyatama played. He is a gentleman and absolute professional. It is no surprise that he is Man-of-the-Match. I call him ‘Musalinho’,” said Micho.

Micho will be hoping Nyatama and his entire Bucs team continue with their good start when they take on Mamelodi Sundowns at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday.
