Jonevret looking for a derby victory

New Orlando Pirates coach Kjell Jonevret says he is going to the Soweto derby against Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday at the FNB Stadium with a win on the back of his mind.


With the Derby commonly known to end in a draw most of the times, the Swede is keen to register his first win as Bucs coach against Amakhosi.

“This is the first derby for me, I don’t know anything about the game ending in a draw, we are going there to win,” said the Pirates coach.

“It has been hectic meeting new people and players. And wherever I go, people are asking me about the derby, but I’m positive about the outcome of the game.”

This will be Jonevret’s second game in charge of Pirates, having played to a 1-1 draw against Polokwane City on his first match.
