On Monday, Orlando Pirates provided concerning information on Thembinkosi
Lorch, Goodman Mosele and two other stars ahead of the much-anticipated
Soweto derby. Since his return from a long-term injury, Lorch has been a
major boost for the Buccaneers, having shown signs of hunger for more
football action in the two matches he has featured in.
In the first match on return, the star marked his return with a goal in
the 2-0 win in the Nedbank Cup against All Stars after coming off the
bench as a second half substitute. His impressive performance earned him a
place in the starting line-up in the league clash against Maritzburg
United as Jose Riveiro’s side continued with their resurgence.

With Bucs going into one of the big matches on their calendar against
Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday, the club has confirmed that Lorch and Mosele
are racing against time to be at FNB Stadium after picking up niggles,
while updates have also been provided on Nkosinathi Sibisi and Richard
Ofori.
“Goodman Mosele and Thembinkosi Lorch each left the field prematurely over
the last two games and might not feature, joining the likes of Nkosinathi
Sibisi and Richard Ofori on the sidelines,” stated Pirates on the club’s
official website in previewing the match.
