Orlando Pirates chairman: "We are devastated"

Orlando Pirates chairman Irvin Khoza is currently addressing the media at Rand Stadium.  The mood at the press conference is somber with many players breaking down in tears.

"We are devastated. We had a session this morning with the players doing some soul searching," Irvin tells journalists. 

He remembers Senzo fondly and how he came to the club at just 13 years old. "This was his home. Senzo put us on the map by helping us get onto the Champions League. Senzo left this world with his own legacy," Irvin added.

The chairman goes onto praise Senzo for his victories and reveals that they've requested that the Soweto Derby be postponed this weekend.
