Edwin Gyimah's Orlando Pirates suffer 6-1 mauling against Super Sports

The Black Stars defender featured when his side Orlando Pirates were condemned to a 6-1 defeat by Super Sports United in the South African League.

Super Sports scored through Reneilwe Letsholonyane, Michael Boxall, Michael Boxall, Thuso Phala, Bradley Grobler and Jeremy Brockie, while Gabadinho Mhango got Pirates the consolation goal.

And things got even worse after the game for the Johannesburg side when head coach Muhsin Ertugral declared his intention to step down from his job – live on national television.

“I have no thoughts – I’m ashamed of the situation for this great club, I have no words. I have never seen such a disastrous 45 minutes like that, we completely blacked out. I don’t think in Pirates’ history they have ever lost by such a margin. I can only speak to the chairman tomorrow and put my resignation [forward],” said a distraught Ertugral.

Gyimah's compatriot, Bernard Morrison came on as a second-half substitute for Pirates
