Once again Orlando Pirates have won the league for the first time in 8 years last wining in in the 2003 season. It has been a long season for all the teams in the PSL and even Ajax has it taken right under their noses, because it was surely theirs for the taking but sadly held to a 2 all match draw forcing them to loose the title. I must admit Pirate have been the most determined team and i give the full credit for it and surely the deserved it. there has been a lot struggles and at some point they looked to have lost their hopes but with the win of the MTN 8 that is worth 8 million surely they were motivated. Pirates will also play the final of the Nedbank cup challenge with 6 million for the winners of the tournament and the league with a splashing 10 million rands for them. If they get this one more cup it means this season pirates would have made themselves 24million rands richer and that is a lot of money for building up for the team or buying new players. Pirates will have to prove that they are champions when they play a side of high caliber and lots of talent,Tottenham Hotspurs a team that was knocked out in the Eufa semifinals on their first appearance . It will prove to be a rather difficult challenge but we will see what they are really made of.
