The 19-year-old played 65 minutes against Tswane outfit and was a lively figure down the right side of the attack.
"It's just the beginning for him [Nkota]." Riveiro told SuperSport after the game.
"he needs to understand that this is just one game. He needs to improve a lot of things still.
"I think he played 65 minutes with his own personality, that's what matters for me. He needs to work hard because in professional football nothing comes for free."
The Spanish tactician also gave praise to full-back Deano van Rooyen, who was named Man of the Match.
"The physicality in these types of games with SuperSport is very important, he [Deano Van Rooyen] managed to control it well in a defensive phase. Not allowing their players to look for crosses, he did a fantastic job with the complement of everybody around of course," he added.
"Man of the match, I think there were six, seven candidates tonight in our squad but happy for Deano and the team in general," the Spanish coach said.
