The win has helped Bucs move to the top of Group B, although they are tied on the same number of points with defending champions in Esperance of Tunisia. 

Horoya coach Patrice Neveu has revealed that his side lacked commitment against the Soweto giants. 

"We lacked physical commitment, we were not present in the duels, we were not at all in the recovery phases of the balloons, where usually we are very successful. We will now draw the conclusions of this defeat to rebound once again. At half-time we repositioned, the players having to look higher. Despite this tactical option in the second half - which could have been put in place during the first - it was not enough. The defeat away is over, we will raise the head for the games to come (translated)," the coach said on Guinean club's official website.
