Baroka vs Orlando Pirates: DStv Premiership Goal Rush

We have to focus – Zinnbauer

“We have to focus, analyse this game quick and then we need the head up, we play against Baroka, it’s also a special game, we need the points if you want one of these places in the table, we need three points for this.” Orlando Pirates head coach Josef Zinnbauer said following his side’s loss to TS Galaxy.

“The problem is that you have the players ready and if have the feeling or you get the information that the player, the muscle is tight or the conditioning is not enough for 90 minutes then it’s better you bring fresh players.

“Orlando Pirates have a good squad, we can change the squad but it’s always before the game or after the game you have more information but [Deon] Hotto is always on the highest level, [Thembinkosi] Lorch was not possible from the start, it was clear. But we need him, that was the reason for the substitute.

“But overall it was not enough, ten, 20 minutes in the first-half, it’s not enough you can win the game. You were not in a structure, you were not forward passing, it was always reaction and it was not enough for a win.”
