Mpofu also said his mind was on their next game, which is the Orange FA Cup semi-final against Orapa United this weekend. “We came into this game a little bit under pressure because we are playing the semi-final next weekend,” he said. Mpofu also explained that he had to make tactical changes to save some of his regulars for the semi-final.

“I had seven players that were sitting on two yellow cards and these are first 11 eleven players, first team players that we depend on and we decided to rest them,” he revealed.
