Ghanaian international midfielder Edwin Gyimah says his club Orlando Pirates have made the Nedbank Cup their priority as they attempt to salvage a very poor season, which he is committed to.

The head coach Eric Tinkler is already under pressure but winning the cup will allow Pirates to compete in the CAF Confederation Cup.
“You know it’s good that it’s not only the league that can give us a place and chance to play in Africa, but winning the Nedbank Cup can also give us that chance”, he told goal.
The 25 year – old also emphasize that the Nedbank Cup game is very important because it is the only trophy can win to salvage a poor season in the clubs history.
Gyimah is expected to be named in Avram Grant squad for the upcoming qualifiers against Mozambique.
