“I think we can’t be more motivated than knowing we’re playing a final and even though it’s against Sundowns, it could be any other team – but knowing that it’s a cup final, it;s an important game, only one team can win and be victorious and lift the trophy,” the Pirates forward added.

The game is set for a Saturday 18:00 kick-off from the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
