Josef Zinnbauer Disappointed By Orlando Pirates Dropping Yet More Points! The Buccaneers drew 1-1 away to SuperSport United yesterday.

This is a result which almost confirms that Pirates will not be winning the inaugural DSTV Premiership. They are too far of the top of the table now.

The German coach was left bemoaning the amount of opportunities Pirates let slip.

“First half was good. Problem was we lost Lorch, but we come in the game and we scored but in the second half the first 15 minutes we were a little too casual,” the Buccaneers coach told SuperSport TV.

“We start good but then we go a little bit back. The situation with Tyson. He comes out for two or three minutes and then we lost a little bit our structure.

“Then they get the goal and we come back. Good opportunities. I cannot say that my team don’t work. They make a good work but you see it in the end of the day in the last five minutes two good opportunities to score. But we didn’t have the luck that we needed to win the three points.

“You have to score earlier. If you get the second goal you finish the game,” he said.

“Then it’s easier for us. We had a lot of good transitions for counter-attack but we are not calm enough. We shoot from 20 metres when we have another option to play in the box and we don’t do this and this is the problem when you have to win against a top team in the league.

“The feeling for the second goal. We had a lot of opportunities but we don’t score. You cannot win three points when you have chances but don’t score.

 “Azola was injured last week,” said the Pirates coach.

“He had a problem with his ankle. We wanted a new fresh player in. And Dlamini’s a player that finds a solution in a low block and he can score also. This was the reason for us.

“But Azola had a good game. Remember he is only 17 years old. He made a very good game.”
