Thembinkosi Lorch continues to shine for Wydad Casablanca

Thembinkosi Lorch’s fine form in Morocco continues unabated as the former Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns stole the show last night when Wydad Casablanca defeated Asante Kotoko 5-1.

Lorch was on fire as he created a goal and scored from the penalty spot.

He created the goal for Aziz Ki in the second half in the 5-1 drubbing of the Ghana-based Kotoko.

The cut back for Aziz was after the midfield maestro beat his man with a first touch to enter the box and played a low cut back cross for Aziz who calmly finished.

The Morocco side won 1-0 in Accra a week ago and knocked out Kotoko 6-1 on aggregate to earn their place in the Caf Confederation Cup group stage.

Lorch has also been a subject of Bafana Bafana return given his rich vein of form in North Africa but it does not seem that the national team technical side are keen on giving him a chance as yet.

The continuation of brilliant displays by Lorch will surely make national selectors notice and have no choice to call him for Bafana Bafana.
