Orlando Pirates 3–1 Highlands Park: Pirates continue with winning run in Soweto

Three goals from Thembinkosi Lorch, Gabadinho Mhango and Paseka Mako ensured Orlando Pirates claimed the full three points when they beat Highlands Park 3-1 in the Premier Soccer League (PSL) at Orlando Stadium on Saturday evening.

Fresh from a 1-0 win over the reigning Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions, Mamelodi Sundowns in their midweek match, Orlando Pirates were looking to bag their second win at home.

Midfielder Lorch scored to make it 1-0 in the seventh minute to beat an offside trap and the Bafana international just directed the pass into the net following a long-range pass into the box to beat goalkeeper Kyle Peters.
