We need to take our chances - Mabasa issues rallying call to goal-shy Orlando Pirates

Orlando Pirates striker Tshegofatso Mabasa has emphasised the importance of converting their goalscoring opportunities.

The 23-year-old player marked his return to the Bucs starting line-up with a goal in their 1-1 draw with Baroka FC in a PSL match on Tuesday evening.

Mabasa started his first league match since November 2019 with the Buccaneers enduring a four-match goal drought.
