We want the three points – Ncikazi
“Only three points will make sense. Just get three points and the journey continues. You have Baroka the next match after Sekhukhune,” Orlando Pirates co-coach Mandla Ncikazi told the club’s media team.
“Win all your matches, and possibilities are. You hope the opponents don’t win all their matches… Kaizer Chiefs and Royal AM, hopefully they don’t won’t all of their matches.
“Fortunately we are still going to play Royal AM in the DStv Premiership but for now let’s focus on one game at a time, Sekhukhune United tomorrow, get three points and the journey continues,”
