Orlando Pirates were rewarded for their excellent run of form as they made a clean sweep of the March Absa Premiership awards, writes DEAN WORKMAN.

Pirates swooped all the awards for the month of March with Milutin Sredojević being named Coach of the Month, Musa Nyatama named Player of the Month while Justin Shonga won the Goal of the Month ― an award voted for by the fans.


The Sea Robbers have been a team transformed under coach Micho and the awards are a testament to the good work that the Serbian is doing at the Soweto giants.

Pirates were in great form throughout the month of March as they won all their league matches, which included victories over Kaizer Chiefs and Golden Arrows.

The good form has kept the Buccaneers firmly in the title race as they sit just one point behind log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns, who have a game in hand.
