Edwin Gyimah triumphs over Lawrence Lartey

Ghana defender Edwin Gyimah was a pillar at the back as Orlando Pirates posted a 2-1 win over Ajax Cape Town, who featured Lawrence Lartey, in the Absa Premiership on Wednesday night.

Both players lasted the entire duration at the Orlando Stadium.

The Buccaneers claimed the victory thanks to an unfortunate own goal from Rivaldo Coetzee and a strike from Sifiso Myeni.

The Urban Warriors netted through Prince Nxumalo and threatened to recover from a two-goal deficit.

On 65 minutes, Gyimah was guilty of a poor piece of defending in his own penalty area and Nxumalo took full advantage by winning the ball and beating Brighton Mhlongo with a cool finish.
