Must-win Richards Bay KZN PSL derby as Arrows hits new low

Abafana Bes’thende have dropped to 14th on the league table, just three points clear of bottom-placed Cape Town City, who have played one game more.

Their latest setback came in the form of a second consecutive defeat to Orlando Pirates, this time a 3-0 loss at Orlando Stadium on Tuesday night.

While Arrows still have a game in hand over some of the other sides fighting relegation, the pressure to turn their fortunes around in the remaining fixtures is now mounting.

Coach Mangoba Mngqithi lamented his team’s failure to stick to the tactical plan, which he felt contributed to their inability to put pressure on a Pirates outfit that wanted to give their outgoing coach Jose Riveiro a perfect send-off, as he was in charge of his final match with the club.
