Orlando Pirates fans appear to have found their new superstar in Kamogelo Sebelebele.

The 23-year-old scored a late goal for the Buccaneers to rescue a 1-1 draw against Mamelodi Sundowns at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Teboho Mokoena opened the scoring for Masandawana in the first half, but his goal was cancelled late on by Sebelebele.

Ouddou is building a monster here, wait till we click. Orlando Pirates boys I’m proud of you. Sebelebele don’t drop that performance; you’ll cement your place.

What did you think of Pirates performance?
