Orlando Pirates outclassed Sekhukhune United 3-0 (4-0 on aggregate) in their MTN8 semi-final second leg at Orlando Stadium on Saturday.
Pirates came into the match holding a 1-0 aggregate advantage, and were welcomed by a sun-soaked late-winter afternoon in Orlando.
Though the Buccaneers were dominant throughout, two of the three goals came during a decisive two-minute spell shortly before the interval to seal a comfortable victory for the hosts.
The Sea Robbers threatened early, creating no fewer than five goalscoring opportunities within the opening half-hour.
