Orlando Pirates Apologise After Players Pose Nude

South African side, the Orlando Pirates, have been forced to issue a public apology after group of their players took a picture with the Nedbank Cup as they all stood around in their birthday suits.

The photo has since been leaked online, which in turn has caused an uproar in the Rainbow Nation.

The players involved in the controversial picture included Thabo Matlaba, Lehlohonolo Majoro, and Thandani Ntshumayelo, while Ntshumayelo has now taken the blame for the picture getting out.
Floyd Mbele, the Pirates’ administrative manager, told the AP: Who are we to condemn players for celebrating?


I mean you can ask most sports codes and it’s something that happens, so this is not unique to Pirates. The fact that it’s out in the media is another thing. But how many players get into their dressing rooms and do funny things after winning matches?
