Motshwari target Sundowns scalp

Orlando Pirates midfielder Ben Motshwari is confident the Sea Robbers can beat Mamelodi Sundowns in their next league tie.


Motshwari backs his side to collect all three points for them to close the gap in the title race.

Sundowns have collected 43 points in 23 games while Pirates have 40 points, also having played 23 games.

The match was brought forward to be played on 1 April. It was originally scheduled for 27 April.

“I honestly feel like the game on Monday is not a title decider, because there are still games to play after that,” Motshwari told reporters.

“And for us as Orlando Pirates, we’re not going into the match as if it’s a title decider. We’re just going there to collect three points.

“We’ll then turn our focus to the next match, and then the next match after the next match. So for us it’s not a title decider.”
