Orlando Pirates winger Relebohile Mofokeng has praised the quality of teammate Oswin Appollis following his performance against Pafos FC.

Mofokeng got his name on the scoresheet as Pirates settled for a 1-1 draw against the Cypriot outfit on Sunday.

The 20-year-old winger found the back of the net after receiving a defence-splitting pass by Appolis before he slotted the ball past the Pafos goalkeeper.

Mofokeng has since reserved special praise for new teammate Appollis for his assist against Pafos FC.

“It was a perfect [pass]. I think he made it easy for me on the ground. It was a better touch,” Mofokeng told SuperSport TV.

“When you are a winger, you must be able to play both [wings], you know. If you can’t play both, then you can’t be a winger. So, I think you can balance the two.”

Orlando Pirates will be back in action on Thursday when they take on Spanish outfit Las Palmas.
