We getting there – Josef Zinnbauer
“We know that we are coming closer now to the good places that we want at the end of the season. It’s coming. We know that.” Orlando Pirates head coach Josef Zinnbauer said.
“And before the game [Against AmaZulu on Thursday evening] I said‚ ‘The performance is not so important today’. We had a big game three days ago against Raja Casablanca‚ and the conditioning was maybe out from some players after 60 or 70 minutes. You could see it. The schedule has been tough.
“And this was the reason I said to the players‚ ‘Go out and fight for the three points‚ fight for the Orlando Pirates supporters and fight for your club.’ And they did this very well and I think we deserved to win the game. We were leading for most of the game. And we were playing forward‚ tried our best‚ and got the victory.”
