Orlando Pirates' Souaibou Marou in action in their preseason friendly against LaLiga team Las Palmas at Banús Football Centre in Marebella on July 19 2020.Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro believes the team’s Spanish camp has served every purpose in preparing his team to be better in the coming season than their double-winning 2022-2023 campaign.
Pirates rounded off an unbeaten three friendly matches with their 0-0 draw against promoted LaLiga team Las Palmas in Marbella on Wednesday. They won their other two matches — 1-0 against Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv and 3-1 against Ecuadorean outfit Independiente Del Valle. The games, played on training grounds in front of few spectators, were certainly preseason friendlies in nature. However, while they were perhaps a little slow-paced, the games did not seem to lack a level of intensity to test Bucs, especially the matchup against Las Palmas.“I am happy overall with the performance during the training camp. We had a fantastic opportunity as a South African football club to spend quality time here together, thanks to the club,” Riveiro said.
