Daine Klate speaks about Orlando Pirates' next ambition, Benni McCarthy's temper and about the "amazing" Durban supporters.

The winger scored the second goal in the Telkom Knockout Final, and speaking after the match had this to say: "It was a special day for us because Orlando Pirates had never won this trophy up until now. So things are looking good.

"Even before this Final our League form had started picking up, so now we are obviously going to go for the League and the Nedbank Cup too.

"I want to say that playing in Durban has been amazing. The turnout of fans here tonight is better than what we get back in Joburg so we were very excited to get out on the field.

"We have also been lucky in Durban, we have always done well here."

Klate's teammate McCarthy was involved in half-time scuffle with Bidvest Wits assistant coach Eric Tinkler, but Klate says he still brings a different dimension to Pirates.

"Benni is a great person off the field to all of us and brings so much value on the field. Yeah, we told him to just relax at half-time because the Wits guys were chirping him and trying to unsettle him.

"Benni will be vital for us in the League and in Africa. Actually, when Benni plays we have never lost yet, so that shows you."

I just want to pay tribute to you DK7 for the wonderful person that you are especially for being the giving, kind hearted person that you are!

I was almost brought to tears yesterday when I read on soccerladuma.com that you had promised our son of the soil Happy Jele that should you score you will dedicate the goal to him by going in front of the camera and showing the number 4 which is Happy's jersey number! U r a true gentleman!

How can I forget your wonderful gesture of giving you 2011 MTN8 medal to Benni as a show of appreciation for the contribution that he had made in the team in the short space of time that he had been with us! Again, you opened your heart and gave openly!

How can I forget how you attended as many Bucs games while sidelined by injury last year! True commitment and professionalism!

Last but not least, how can I forget the 120% that you always give on the field of play! You are simply amazing & we, THE GHOST FAITHFUL, remain forever indebted to you DK7! We love you...

Ho monate fela! Collecting trophies has become a hobby ... boy what a nice one shoooo! Remember how certain people used to laugh at us? Even a bunch of nobodies from that other team of heartbreaks ... how they used to say they are the cup specialists ... remember that? Those who did the most talking before the Telkom final much louder than Wits; the team that was ACTUALLY in the final and NOT them? Remember that? Remember how they were saying they were going to keep this trophy? I wonder how words taste once you forced to eat them, or and that other kind of pie what do they call it again? Oh how can I forget HUMBLE PIE :)

You know what the beauty of ALL this is, is that the rest of the teams will be mortivated to reach the finals so that when they meet Orlando Pirates there and lose, they will ALL pat each other on the back and say 'chin up guys, there is always a next time remember that we were playing the MIGHTIEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND BEYOND, do not feel battered, defeated, do not bitch moan or cry we are men, we soldier on - leave the crying and the grief to the amakhosikazi they will do it for us and they do it well.' Ain't that something?
