Watch Gallants goal that broke the hearts of Orlando Pirates fans

Orlando Pirates suffered their second successive league defeat of the season at the hands of Marumo Gallants on Tuesday.

The Buccaneers travelled to Bloemfontein eager to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat to Sekhukhune United last weekend.

Abdeslam Ouaddou made changes to the Pirates team that lost to Sekhukhune United with one eye on Saturday’s MTN8 semifinal clash against Mamelodi Sundowns.

And those changes proved effective, at least in the early stages of the first half as Pirates threw everything at Gallants.

Patrick Maswanganyi opened the scoring with a clean finish in the 16th minute, but Gallants equalised just before the break through Daniel Msendami.

In fact, the Soweto giants should have, at least, been three or four goals up at half-time by their finishing let them down.

Bahlabane Ba Ntwa showed resilience in the second half of the game, and they were rewarded deep in stoppage time as substitute Jaisen Clifford scored the winner that broke the hearts of Bucs fans.

The defeat has seen a section of Pirates fans call for the sacking of Ouaddou, with Jose Riveiro begged to return to the club.
