After another game where Orlando Pirates dominated possession but failed to score, Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic has revealed that the newly appointed finishing coach will be under pressure.
Despite dominating large parts of the encounter, the Buccaneers were edged 1-0 by Bidvest Wits in their Absa Premiership clash on Wednesday evening.

It was the Soweto giants’ first defeat of the season, but they are still waiting for their first goal from open play despite appointing a finishing coach before the start of the season.
Speaking after the game to SuperSport, Micho admitted that the club’s new finishing coach will be under pressure.
‘There is no magic stick that you press the button and things work immediately.
‘We need to improve very much in front of goal.’
The Serbian, however, revealed that he was happy with the performance despite the result.
‘I’m very disappointed with the result but the approach that we had with patient buildups in order to tire the opponent… we had been a dominant side and created chances,’ he added.

‘We dominated in all statistical aspects but in that one aspect that counts, we conceded a goal from an accidental situation. This is what cost us. Accidents happen in football.
‘We need to accept it and see if we can be much more effective going forward. From the chances that we created, we could have easily won the game. However, with one moment of lapse in concentration, this is how it is in football, it cost us to lose the match.’
