Lorch supporters take a moment to appreciate the sweet post

While many Mzansi women were swooning over the soccer star, as always, others found the post a nice touch. People really love how proud Lorch is of his culture, however, it was not enough to deter them from the penalty he missed recently, shame. Diehard fans defended their guy though!

Take a look at some of the comments:

“Uyinja thanks for giving us a great final to watch ”

@SirMariri_ZA said:

“The game should have been won on normal time they should stop blaming you, in fact you should have not scored the equaliser. At least you could have not missed a penalty.”

In related news, Briefly News reported that matching outfits are cute, but choosing blanket material as “the look”, is definitely questionable. A snap of a fam wearing proudly African blankets as means of matching outfits left the comment section blazing.

Most people have had a moment where they have worn an overly floral item of clothing that could easily be mistaken for curtains, but purposefully wearing blankets is not a choice many make.

Twitter user @Dipuo1026 proudly shared the family snap introducing “The Tjales”. The picture shows the fam wearing outfits made from blankets… even their accessories had a splash of the famous fabric. It is a lot!
