Patrick Maswanganyi, Relebohile Mofokeng, and Kabelo Dlamini netted the other goals for Pirates.
It was a great feeling, Mbatha told the Pirates media. It is actually a dream come true scoring my first goal for Orlando Pirates. I must thank the team, the staff and the technical team for the opportunity and support that they give me every day.
Mbatha further revealed that he embraces the challenge of having to fight for his place in the Pirates starting team.
Mbatha will be looking forward to scoring another goal for Pirates and also helping his team overcome Cape Town City on Wednesday.
As the coach says, we take each game as it comes.We take it one day at a time. I think we should prepare ourselves mentally and physically. Its not going to be an easy game as we are playing away. If we do play the football we want and do what the coach tells us, well definitely come back with the three points, concluded Mbatha.
