The 2025/26 Premier Soccer League title is now Orlando Pirates’ to lose after receiving a massive favour courtesy of TS Galaxy in Nelspruit on Tuesday night.

Following the defeat, which may ultimately cost Sundowns the championship, Cardoso lamented the congested fixture schedule during the closing stages of the campaign.
