Breaking News: Philadelphia Eagles Head Coach Nick Sirianni Declares His Retirement Owing To…

Coach Jose Riveiro of the Orlando Pirates has given up on his team’s chances of winning the DStv Premiership after their recent setbacks.Polokwane City and Pirates drew 1-1 at Orlando Stadium on Friday night in the league.
The late goal by Mashikinya for the Limpopo squad negated the goal by Patrick Maswanganyi.The terrible result absolutely mocked Riveiro’s pre-match comments that they might still catch up to log leaders and reigning champions Mamelodi Sundowns.

The Pirates trail the Brazilians by fifteen points with one game left; the Brazilians are the favorites to capture a record-breaking seventh straight championship.

After his team went three games without winning a league game, Riveiro, who had been a furious figure on the touchline, made a bold declaration about their hopes of winning the title following the Polokwane encounter.

The Spaniard said, “No!” in response to the question of whether his team might still challenge for the title this year.

Since he has witnessed how tough it is for his side to win games in a row in the league, Riveiro isn’t concerned with points at this time. Instead, he believes that scoring is the primary source of their problems.

Are the points causing you any concern? The points don’t need to concern me. Something abstract, a figure. Thus, I should not be concerned,” Riveiro retorted.

I might be worried about the things we need to work on this week and the fact that we’re not doing well. For us, the objectives are not as straightforward or frequent as we would want.

That is a disadvantage in a game similar to football. I am distracted and not thinking about problems. In a game, we must ensure that we encounter new, not repetitive, obstacles.

Zakhele Lepasa scored 10 goals in his first eight games of the season, so the Pirates’ main early-season issue was not a lack of goals.
