G"Day and welcome to the King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium for our coverage of this DStv Premiership encounter between Richards Bay FC and Orlando Pirates
1'
Kick-off! We are underway here in KZN.
3'
Pirates are dominating possession in the opening stages and they secure a free-kick after a foul on Dlamini.
5'
SAVED by Jacobs, who was at the right place at the right time to prevent the Pirates set-piece from reaching the back of the net! Wow!!
8'
We have a stoppage in the Pirates half and Mbuthuma is in need of attention.
11'
Despite Pirates dominating they do allow gaps for Richards Bay to pose some danger.
15'
Another Richards Bay attempt is easily cleared by the Pirates' keeper Chaine.
17'
Pirates have now shifted to a 4-2-3-1 formation.
20'
Lorch looks at taking on his man and beats him but his pass to Dzvukamanja is wasted, as Dzvukamanja was in a clear offside position.
22'
OFFSIDE again and this time Lorch finds Saleng with a through-ball but the result is the same.
25'
That change of formation have given the Pirates midfield and attackking players more freedom.
27'
Terrence Dzvukamanja earns a free-kick in a good position for Pirates.
29'
POST! Saleng hits the post and then super work by Jacobs, who again ensure that the ball from the set-piece stays out of his goal!
32'
GOAL, ORLANDO PIRATES, DZVUKAMANJA! 0-1: Terrence Dzvukamanja with a superb finish after a cross from Dlamini and Dzvukamanja guides it past Jacobs on this occasion. The Richards Bay defence should have covered that cross!
35'
A promising free-kick for Richards Bay now just outside the Pirates box. A WASTED opportunity! They should have done better as it fizzles out for a goal kick. Nyauza should have done better.
37'
We have another stoppage and Mbuthuma looks in a spot of bother.
40'
Richards Bay secure a rare corner after a Xoki clearance. The corner is sadly also wasted.
42'
It's getting feisty out there and Dlamini is now guilty of a foul on Mabua.
44'
Mabua is now down after a collision with Timm.
45'
+3: HALF-TIME: RICHARDS BAY FC 0-1 ORLANDO PIRATES. It's been all Pirates here and Richards Bay have not really been able to test Pirates. The home team must regroup and fast.
45'
+1: Dzvukamanja is now down with a head injury in stoppage time.
45'
We will have two minutes of time added on for stoppages.
46'
Kick-off! We are back underway here in the second half.
48'
SUBSTITUTION: A change at the break for Richards Bay. Mthethwa is on for Mdabuka. Injury?
50'
YELLOW CARD, ORLANDO PIRATES, SIBISI! 0-1: Sibisi is the first Pirates player in the book after a miss-timed tackle.
52'
Dlamini finds Lorch, who's shot is SAVED by the keeper.
53'
Richards Bay with a rare set-piece in a good position but the flag is raised for OFFSIDE after it is taken.
54'
WASTED BY SALENG after a through-ball. He shoots it over after getting the better of the keeper but ALAS the FLAG IS UP!
56'
YELLOW CARD, ORLANDO PIRATES, DLAMINI! 0-1: Dlamini is next in the book for Pirates after a harsh tackle.
59'
Richards Bay floats in a corner but again it is directed behind the attacking players. Not good enough!
62'
POST! Timm finds Saleng with a diagonal ball and the keeper does well to direct it away after hitting the post! The subsequent Pirates corner is cleared.
64'
YELLOW CARD, RICHARDS BAY. JACOBS! 0-1: The keeper is booked for getting involved in a altercation that does not affect him.
65'
YELLOW CARD, RICHARDS BAY. MBUTHUMA! 0-1: Another card is awarded to Mbuthuma for the original harsh tackle.
67'
SUBSTITUTION: Changes for Pirates. Maphathe is on for Romario Dlamini and Shandu is on Maela. Hotto is also on for Kabelo Dlamini.
70'
Lorch does well to beat his man but then his pass is POOR!
73'
Yet another delay and now Mcineka is down and in need of attention.
75'
SUBTITUTION: A change for the home team now and Siyanda Msani replaces Nyauza.
77'
Monare is now guilty of a foul on Mtethwa and concedes a free-kick to Richards Bay.
78'
Richards Bay are certainly getting some chances in now and while the score is 0-1 they will think that they have a shot at a draw.
80'
SUBSTITUTION: Makaringe is on for Lorch and Makgopa replaces Dzvukamanja, as Pirates make changes.
82'
Can Pirates hold on here or will Richards Bay surprise them by getting one back?
85'
It has been a stop-start afair over the last few minutes.
87'
Makaringe feeds Saleng in space and he goes for goal but shoots it OVER!
88'
Pirates with another corner and Saleng delivers it but Richards Bay clear.
90'
We are into the five minutes of time added on for stoppages.
92'
GOAL, ORLANDO PIRATES, SALENG! 0-2: A goal on a platter after a goal mouth scramble and confusion amongst the Richards Bay defenders. In the end the ball falls to Saleng, who has an open goal and he finds it!
95'
FULL-TIME: RICHARDS BAY FC 0-2 ORLANDO PIRATES. It's seven defeats in a row for Richards Bay and Pirates on the other hand move into second place on the table. Thank you for joining us.
