Quote: "I watched the Orlando Pirates game against Pyramids, and I was impressed by the level of Pyramids; they played confidently, and it was unfair that the game ended in a draw without a victor. I expected Orlando Pirates to be the strongest at home, and I was surprised by how Pyramids played.

Currently, Pyramids are in a very good position, and I think they are closest to qualifying. Of course, we should not underestimate Orlando Pirates, because they counterattack well and are still a strong team, but Pyramids are the stronger team.

I don't think Orlando Pirates have players capable of making a difference. I think they played in their best form, and I don't expect major changes; perhaps individual performances may improve slightly," said De Sa.
