Orlando Pirates CAF Champions League campaign

Overview

Orlando Pirates entered their CAF Champions League preliminary round second-leg match against La Cure Waves with several key players, including Kabelo Dlamini, Thalente Mbatha, and Evidence Makgopa, returning to training. The club also monitored the injury recovery of winger Mohau Nkota.

Following a 3-1 victory that secured advancement to the second preliminary round against Namibia’s African Warriors, head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou expressed frustration regarding player discipline. While celebrating the win, Ouaddou criticized certain players for “showboating” during the second half, stating such behavior serves the “individual’s ego” rather than the team. He emphasized the club's championship ambitions and praised midfielder Kabelo Dlamini for his decision-making abilities.
