Orlando Pirates midfielder Thabang Monare has commended his side’s “hard work and exceptional teamwork” as he feels they are on “the right path” after edging Maritzburg United 1-0 in a Premier Soccer League clash on Saturday, to recover from dropping points in two prior matches.
Pirates arrived in Kwa-Zulu Natal on the backdrop of winning one match in five previous games, a run which earned them just five points out of a possible 15.
But after more questions started being asked about their title credentials, especially in their last two games in which they lost 2-0 to relegation candidates Black Leopards and drew 0-0 with Golden Arrows, the Buccaneers responded with an away win.
