TEKO MODISE’S ADVICE FOR PATRICK MASWANGANYI

We can expect Orlando Pirates forward Patrick Maswanganyi to score and create goals for Bafana Bafana soon.

Maswanganyi, affectionately known as “Tito,” delighted his fans with two goals in two matches for Bafana Bafana last week. Former Orlando Pirates superstar Teko Modise played a role.

“I have spoken to Tito (Patrick Maswanganyi) personally, and I said he becomes so dangerous whenever he plays in and around the box,” Modise said on SuperSport TV.

“All these other things, they are nice on the eye, but at the end of the day, if you want to be a Bafana Bafana player, a regular Bafana Bafana player, you need to be in and around the box.

“With his creativity and skill, you need to be scoring goals, and I am glad he scored his second goal for Bafana,” Modise concluded.
