Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro is pleased his team is on a roll and seem to be on course for a strong finish.
Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro during the DStv Premiership match against Cape Town City FC at Orlando Stadium on April 22 2023.Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro is pleased his team are on a role and seem to be on course for a strong finish to the 2022-23 season that may include more silverware, so for now he's willing to overlook that they continue to miss some glaring chances.
Bucs have won seven games in a row in all competitions and five on the trot in the league, and are a point behind second-placed SuperSport United, who have played 27 games. Yet, Pirates continue to miss chances, as they did in their 2-1 Premiership win against City at Orlando Stadium on Saturday, where they had seven shots out of 19 on target. Riveiro was asked if he's frustrated at such a statistic. “Frustration is not the word,” said the Spaniard. “I'm not coming to the games thinking we're going to win 5-0 and if we're not at 5-0 at halftime I get frustrated. I know how difficult it is.
“It's a complicated game and you have to control a lot of things to get a result. But I'm not frustrated because I know how much it takes.
