Pirates look to take advantage of Sundowns stumble in title race

Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has compared this season’s title race between his side and Sundowns to the intense rivalry between Arsenal and Manchester City in the English Premier League.“If you see the Premier League in England, Manchester City, Arsenal, they’re fighting. I think it’s the same fight that we see in the PSL. It creates a lot of interest for the fans.

It’s no fun when a team takes the title 10 games before the end of the season, because if you already know at the beginning of the season who is going to be champions, you lose interest,” said Ouaddou. “So, this season we’ve tried to bring more competitiveness. I think the boys really did well.

Let’s see what the result will be at the end of this season. But the most important thing is to be competitive until the end. “So for us, the dream is still here. The players are going to fight, and it’s possible, like I said at the beginning of the season, to fight until the last game and maybe the people will know the champion only after the last game,” he added.
