Maluti have drawn inspiration from Baroka FC’s amazing run in the same competition two years ago and feel they can caused one of the biggest cup shocks in South Africa soccer history against the defending Premiership champions.
“We respect Pirates, but are not afraid of them,” coach Morena Ramoreboli tells KickOff.com.
“Our preparations for this game have gone well. My intention and the aim of the team is to qualify for the next stage of the competition and the only way to do that is by beating Orlando Pirates on Saturday.”

He adds: “We obviously don’t have any big-name players as we only believe in the development of our own youngsters. The team has been together for three seasons and we believe we are experienced and mature enough to compete against Pirates.”

Even Chiefs was not afraid of Baroka and Cape Town FC
We not some striped animal from Soweto that can be mesmerized by high school cry babies , we ze Ghost from Soweto. Ask Djabal.
Don't be suprised when your players asks autographs from their heros during the game and for your information,you can take a page from Baroka's book but we are not Chiefs thina but THE BEST TEAM IN SA...we play Champs League football this days
Your team won't be underestimated by the Champs, it will be Djabalised...
Welkom,Qwaqwa,Sasol,Parys,Vredefort,Viljoeskroon,Vrede,Virginia,Kopies le lona moo Mangaung the best team invades Free State tommorow,come see the Champs
Dats the spirit. I'm happy dat this team has a real keeper not a DEFENDER that is wearing GLOVES as that poor team did last week.
K4L : let's hear
Roger must unleash Nanana for this one. Won't even celebrate the goals. Like really this a joke. Masalesa and Moholo should play and Mhlongo should be the goalkeeper. A college team nogaal.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
I agree champ and as for Senzo, he hardly makes saves this days and your will swear he is a spectator
You must warned that we take offence from messages like this especially messages perpetuated by the zebras.
6-0 will be enough.
We don't compromise and since you got a big mouth you gonna get a same treatment as Djabal.
