Pirates played to a frustrating 0-0 draw against Richards Bay at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday. The Buccaneers failed to find the back of the net despite their 15 shots at goal."Things to improve in our attack? what I was a bit upset [about] in the beginning is we cannot talk about the last touch, in my opinion. We can talk more about the second-last.
On more than one occasion during the game, Riveiro called striker Zakhele Lepasa over to the touchline to issue instructions. The Spaniard has since opened up about the conversation between the pair. "With Lepasa, I called him just [to discuss] some tactical details about our approach and trying to explain to him how to give another solution to [Innocent] Maela during our build-ups, because of one specific situation that was happening there in between Lepasa, Maela and [Deon] Hotto," explained Riveiro.Meanwhile, Usuthu lost to Richards Bay and have since parted ways with head coach Brandon Truter.
Former Marumo Gallants coach Romain Folz will be in charge of the Durban outfit when they travel to Soweto.
