Head coach of Orlando Pirates Jose Riveiro has disclosed what he feels led to the Buccaneers conceding the second goal in their DStv Premiership defeat to Sekhukhune United on Tuesday night, following a blunder by Ghanaian goalkeeper Richard Ofori.
The Buccaneers failed to build energy on what had been a good performance after last Saturday's 0-0 draw with Mamelodi Sundowns in the MTN8.
Ofori held onto the ball for too long as he failed to clear his line to safety and as a result, was dispossessed by right-winger Vusimuzi Mncube to seal the 2-0 win in stoppage time for the home side who are 11th on the summit after Elias Mokwana had given his side the lead.
"We were disorganized on the field, looking for the goal to at least get one point and with the players tired because we played a lot of minutes with one man down. It's normal to have one mistake, but in that mistake the opponents get the advantage and they score the second one and that's the end of the story," Riveiro told the media at the Peter Mokaba Stadium after the defeat.
