Abdeslam Ouaddou transforms Orlando Pirates into defensive giants and clinical title contenders

Under the guidance of Abdeslam Ouaddou, Orlando Pirates have become solid defensively and effective in attack, essential qualities for the title race. Goalkeeper Sipho Chaine is enjoying his best season, just three clean sheets away from the record of 19 in a top-flight campaign. Ouaddou, a former defender, has successfully reorganized the team's defensive unit, which struggled last season.
