Orlando Pirates should have had a penalty, says ex-Bucs midfielder Fredericks

Orlando Pirates should have been awarded a first-half penalty against Chippa United at the Orlando Stadium on Wednesday night, according to former Buccaneer and Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Stanton Fredericks.

Fredericks was referring to an incident which occurred in the ninth minute involving Chippa United forward Thabiso Lebitso and Orlando Pirates defender Thabiso Monyane.

After a lung-busting run, Monyane cut into the Chilli Boys box before he was sent flying by a challenge from Lebitso.

Referee Thando Ndzandzeka waved play on in the apparent belief that Lebitso had taken the ball, albeit that his tackle was from behind.
