Orlando Pirates fans sing Lepasa's praises at the top of the PSL table
Orlando Pirates fans were left celebrating more than Wednesday's 1-0 Premier Soccer League victory over Marumo Gallants at home.
Striker Zakhele Lepasa became the toast of social media after an impressive outing in his first league start in almost two seasons.
The 25-year-old did not score and could not finish the match but was outstanding in the victory.
Fans took to social media to celebrate Lepasa's contribution.
Zakhele Lepasa is capable of giving Pirates what Shalulile is giving Sundowns. He's got physique, speed and strength but his technique let him down sometimes.#DStvPrem

I remember speaking about Lepasa as a striker that Kaizer Chiefs should look at and my fanbase wanted to eat me alive

This is what lepasa gives you. Always an option for a pass...runs at defenders...hold up play...if he doesnt score he will assist fo sho. pic.twitter.com/U2XEhaEaKC

Anyway we are people of Zakhele Lepasa, but young Simba needs to start converting because that's the only thing missing in his game.
