Milutin 'Micho' Sredojevic has explained how Orlando Pirates planned for Willard Katsande and Siphelele Ntshangase in the second half of their match against Kaizer Chiefs as Bucs emerged as 2-1 winners on Saturday.
According to the coach, the introduction of Mpho Makola towards the end of the match was planned in order to cut off the supply from Katsande and Ntshangase to the team's strikers.

"We tactically answered with Bibo (Makola) coming inside in order to cut the supply to forward from Katsande and Ntshangase. We had Mako closing the side of Rama and we had stamping authority in the midfield with putting Makola. We believe that everything we planned went well. However, we are not carried away," said Sredojevic.
