Facing Orlando Pirates is a ‘game every player would love to play’ according to SuperSport United attacker Fagrie Lakay ahead of the defending MTN8 champions’ quarter-final clash with the Buccaneers.
The 21-year-old not only helped his team to their first three points of the season in his first start of the campaign, but the former Ajax Cape Town loanee also picked up the Man of the Match accolade against AmaZulu.

‘It’s not gonna be an easy one. I think if you should ask any team if they think they could win it, they will say yes and I don’t think in our case it’s any different but we just take it one game at a time,’ he added.
