It was really a tensed and explosive encounter at the Moses Mobhida Stadium as it finished goalless after extra time with the Buccaneers winning 3-1 on penalties.
Pirates goalie Sipho Chaine was the hero of the day for the champions, having saved three penalty kicks in the shootouts and was adjudged man of the match in the game.
Richard Ofori was part of the winning team but was an unused substitute in the entire game.
