“An away goal can be an important factor at the end of a game, but we need to score and we didn’t (in the first leg).” the Orlando Pirates coach told reporters before the match.

“There is no advantage for anyone so far, but we need to score. At this moment the score is 0-0.

“I am sure that both teams will start the game looking for that advantage (to score). So, it won’t change the way we prepare for the game, the approach, and the players we are going to select.
