Orlando Pirates star Relebohile Mofokeng has become somewhat of a super sub this season. Coach Jose Riveiro has offered comments.
JOSE RIVEIRO ON RELEBOHILE MOFOKENG SELECTION
“You can imagine, we have a game to prepare for and a game plan to execute, with 39 players to choose from, and today [last Saturday] ‘Rele’ was chosen to be on the bench and come in after about 60 minutes,” said Riveiro via SABC.
“I think his contribution to get this trophy was exceptionally good again, not only today but during the whole competition, and not only in that moment in the game but during the 90 minutes I think he can do it.
“But today we prepared the game to play the way we did in the first half and to use what we have on the bench in the moment we considered it necessary,” the Orlando Pirates tactician concluded.
