Thamsanqa Gabusa On The First Leg Against Etoile du Sahel

Orlando Pirates striker, Thamsanqa Gabuza, has lamented Bucs' share of the spoils in the first leg against Etoile du Sahel and thinks they should have sealed the win.

Gabuza opened the scoring for the Sea Robbers with a stunning strike and it looked as though Pirates would keep a clean sheet and hold out for the win.

However, it wasn't to be and Etoile grabbed an away goal late in the game to tie the scores heading into the second leg in Tunisia this evening.

'Manenzhe' has indicated that he thinks the Buccaneers should have sealed the win at Orlando Stadium last week but went on to say that the team are not worried and are confident they can complete the task ahead.

"It was a really good game and I think it was one game where we should have been like thieves – steal the game and move on to the second leg with a good win," Gabuza told Soccer Laduma.

"Unfortunately things didn't go according to plan, but our away record has always been encouraging. We are not afraid or worried because we know what we need to do.

"The motivation and hunger is still there and we all know what we have to do in order to be victorious."
