Reason it was a right call to award Pirates penalty

Briefly News previously reported that Orlando Pirates were victorious in the first Soweto derby against Kaizer Chiefs this season in the Betway Premiership, as they defeated their city rivals 1-0 at the FNB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Sea Robbers' victory was sealed late in the game after Patrick Maswanganyi converted a last-minute penalty to give the Bucs all three points against the Glamour Boys.

The late penalty awarded to Jose Riveiro's side was contested by most Kaizer Chiefs fans as they believed it was not the right call by the referee.
