Ruzaigh Gamildien: Coach Told Us To Be Fearless

Ruzaigh Gamildien: Coach Told Us To Be Fearless

Ruzaigh Gamildien has revealed what Swallows coach Brandon Truter told the players before their clash against Orlando Pirates.

Gamildien bagged a brace as the Dube Birds defeated the Buccaneers 2-1 to secure a spot in the MTN8 semi-finals.

The 32-year-old reveals the coach told them not to be fearless against the reigning champions at Orlando Stadium.

"The Glory has to go the team," Gamildien told SuperSport after the game.

"We worked very hard. We have a new squad. The coach always told us believe in yourself, go out there and be fearless. I'm glad we could pull off this big upset and onto the next one.

"I've been practising in training and I knew I was going to get one this game. I just had to get it on target and I knew it was going to go in.

"I saw the keeper out of his area and I just had to make sure that I got it on target and it went in.

"The pressing is part of our DNA. The coach emphasises that we must press responsibly and keep teams under pressure. Like you saw today it worked out in our favour."
