Olisa Ndah was the toast of Orlando Pirates fans after Tuesday’s PSL match against the visiting Maroka Swallows at the Orlando Stadium in Jo’burg.
Ndah featured for the duration of the game and helped Pirates shut out a menacing Swallows attack in the 2-0 win.
The victory ensured that the Buccaneers bounced back to winning ways after last week’s draw against Richards Bay.
Jose Riveiro’s men have now kept four consecutive clean sheets in as many league games.
Ndah featured in all four games and the Nigerian CB was solid at the back in a three-man defence line
He completed 2 tackles and won 6 duels, growing his influence yet again among Buccaneer fans who praised his confidence, leadership role and dependability.
While the Pirate Goalkeeper, Melusi Buthelezihad quite little to do, his opposite number Daniel Akpeyi was in the firing line.
The 37-year-old Nigeria international made one save and was beaten twice as Swallows’ poor league form continues – having only picked just 4 points and now lost back to back games from the last four matches.
