Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou admits his substitutes did not make the desired impact in the second half against Marumo Gallants on Tuesday night.

The Buccaneers have lost back-to-back games in the Betway Premiership following Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Gallants in Bloemfontein.

“Of course, it’s not the result we expected. We came here with a lot of ambition to take the three points we lost at home," Ouaddou told SuperSport after the game.

"I can say that we started very well the game – opening the score with a lot of chances again we didn’t put in the net.

“Like I said when you don’t score you gave the opportunity to finish you so it’s a big disappointing that we start very bad and we’ll sit and think about that.

Sipho Mbule and Relebohile Mofokeng started on the bench, although the latter was introduced in the second period along with Evidence Makgopa and Sinoxolo Kwayiba.

“We are going to analyse the game and to see what’s going wrong especially in the second half. We tried to make some changes," he added.

“Unfortunately, the changes we did they didn’t give what we expect from them, their level. Ja, it’s a big disappointment but we going to sit, to analyse and to come back stronger."
