'He's a top player' - Zinnbauer praises Dlamini impact after Maritzburg United win

Orlando Pirates head coach Josef Zinnbauer stressed the importance of his tactical change at half-time against Maritzburg United on Saturday evening.

The Team of Choice grabbed an early goal through Thabiso Kutumela after a mistake by his former Maritzburg teammate Richard Ofori in the Pirates goal-posts.

However, the Buccaneers scored three times through Kabelo Dlamini, Deon Hotto and Vincent Pule to claim a come-from-behind victory in the Nedbank Cup Last 16 game.
