Mosimane: Chances Don't Win Games

Mosimane: Chances Don't Win Games
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane lamented his side's inability to convert their chances after the 2-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates on Saturday.   Read: Ten-Man Pirates Clinch Semi-Final Berth   The Brazilians were knocked out of the Nedbank Cup at the quarterfinal stage after two goals in extra-time saw Bucs clinch the win.   Sundowns created numerous chances throughout the game, but failed to finish, giving Pirates the chance to score a late winner.   Mosimane said, "You don't win the game through possession or chances. You win the game by putting the ball in the net. It doesn't matter how many chances you create. Football doesn't work like that.   "We lost a little bit of discipline in midfield, trying to play difficult balls instead of keeping it simple.   "Leo tonight was not up to it. You can wait and wait (before substituting him) but why wait if you're playing 11 against 10?   "Pirates played very well. They showed that they wanted it. They showed that this is the last cup they are going for. They were patient."
