'Lorch has to score and then I think the game is done' - Orlando Pirates' Zinnbauer rues missed chance

The 50-year-old tactician also refused to criticize Nyauza, who conceded a penalty in the second-half

Orlando Pirates head coach Josef Zinnbauer believes Thembinkosi Lorch should have killed off their match against Kaizer Chiefs in the Carling Black Label Cup on Sunday.

The Buccaneers succumbed to a 4-3 defeat to Amakhosi on penalties following a 0-0 draw in a game that took place at Orlando Stadium.

Pirates' best chance fell for Lorch, who was unmarked in the box, but the Bafana Bafana international was superbly denied by Chiefs goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune in the second half.
