Jonevret happy with first victory

Orlando Pirates coach Kjell Jonevret was delighted with his side's win in the Nedbank Cup last 32 against EC Bees FC.


The Buccaneers beat the ABC Motsepe side 3-1 at Sisa Dukashe Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Dove Wome, Mpho Makola and Thamsanqa Gabuza were on the scoresheet for the Soweto giants while Bongani Chilika scored the consolation goal for the home side.

This was Jonevret’s first victory in charge of Bucs .

“They were good and had lot of energy, but we had some problems with our passing game and we lost a lot of balls,” said Jonevret after the game.

“But this team has a lot of talented players but right now they are less confident. I think you can see when they are playing, but hopefully there’s going to be relief for us.

“I think we had good control of the first half and there were chances but after we had scored the second one, I mean that goal [scored by Bees] should be dealt with by us.

“We should never have allowed them to that one-against-one but you saw what happened, we gave them a goal, a pretty simple one again.”
