Sekhukhune United beat Orlando Pirates 2-0 in the DSTV Premiership on Tuesday night. Head coach Kaitano Tembo believes that it was a hard-earned win.
Going into the match, the hosts were languishing on 15th in the table, while the much-fancied visitors were sat second placed.
Goals from Elias Mokwana and Vusumuzi Mncube gave Sekhukhune United an unlikely victory over the Soweto Giants. But Tembo insists that it was a well-deserved win.
“I think this game, I give it to the chairman, Mr Malatji, the CEO Mr Jonas Malatji,” Tembo told SuperSport TV after the win.
“The football managers, the technical team as well as the players because the support they have been giving me has been brilliant. So, I think this win, they really deserved it.
“You know, coming into the game, we worked very hard, to be honest, to be fair. We were always threatening whenever we went forward.
“We knew that if we can put them under pressure maybe they will crack. You saw with the goals that we scored there, irrespective of whether we were a man extra.
“But even before that we had chances. This is not an easy team to play against, they are very difficult to break.
“And even with 10-men they still had half chances, in terms of possession. So, credit to the guys.
“I think we deserved the win.” He added.
Babina Noko have moved up to 11th on the table after the win. Kaitano Tembo Believes They Deserved Orlando Pirates Win!
