Tsepo Masilela Looking Forward to Hosting Orlando Pirates in The DSTV Premiership!

Tsepo Masilela Looking Forward to Hosting Orlando Pirates in The DSTV Premiership! Usuthu will face The Buccaneers in the league this evening.

AmaZulu play host to Orlando Pirates in the DSTV Premiership this evening. Veteran left back Tsepo Masilela is in very good spirits ahead of the crunch battle.

It will hopefully hold Usuthu in good stead to be in good spirits for today’s match. The hosts have not at all replicated the form they did last season.

Instead, it has been quite tough in Benni McCarthy’s second season in charge. Last weekend he claimed that his side is turning out to be “the new Swallows” after claiming yet another draw, this time against Royal AM.

“The guys are looking forward to the game, the matches are coming thick and fast, and we need to pick up points and start winning at some point,” Masilela says.

“It is a home game, but in this league, there is no easy match. We are expecting a tough game against a very good side.

“Individually they are good, and they have a good coach [Mandla Ncikazi] who was at Golden Arrows last year.

“Our performances have been good, but maybe the results have been disappointing. If we can continue performing as we are and creating chances, I think somewhere we will start winning.

“But it is also important that we don’t get ahead of ourselves because every game has its own challenges. As long as we defend well and take our chances, we can get the three points.”

AmaZulu are ninth on the table while their visitors are two spots ahead on seventh spot. Kick-off this evening is at 17h30, at the Jonsson Kings Park Stadium. Tsepo Masilela Looking Forward to Hosting Orlando Pirates in The DSTV Premiership!
