Orlando Pirates vows to thrash African Stars

… Seeks revenge over first leg beating

By: John Tuerijama
IT is all systems go at the Sam Nujoma Stadium when action-thirst Orlando Pi­rates Football Club (FC) open their final campaign of the 2017/18 MTC Premiership against bitter rival and log leaders African Stars at the mecca of football in Katutura tonight.
The match which is expected to be en­tertaining and mouth-watering, will see if Orlando Pirates affectionately known as (Sea Robbers) stop African Stars FC from repeating the first leg onslaught. During that match ‘Starlile’ hammered the black-and-white outfit with no mercy in their quest to be crowned the 2017/18 MTC Premiership champions.
In an interview with Confidente this week, Orlando Pirates FC Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Niklaas Kasilipili indicated that Pi­rates’ engine has been properly oiled and readied to overcome African Stars FC to­night.
African Stars FC enjoys the psychologi­cal boost of topping the log standing on 36 points while Orlando Pirates FC is placed seventh on 18 points.
Kasilipili said that defender Riaan !Han­anub is safely sound with the ‘Buccaneers’ and will don his number 12 jersey proudly against the log leaders.
