Zinnbauer: Pirates ‘players are so hot at training – I see this in their eyes’

On-form Buccaneers‚ who have won their last six Absa Premiership matches‚ host Amakhosi in what will be Zinnbauer’s first experience of the Soweto derby since he took over in December.

“They want to go out there and play but I hope that they are not doing this too much because too much is not good. They must try to find a balance. Pirates have not played a competitive match in two weeks as they were not involved in the last-16 of the Nedbank Cup last weekend‚ but Zinnbauer is not too concerned about their inactivity.

It will be for the first time in the long and illustrious history of the Soweto derby that there will be two German coaches on the bench‚ but Zinnbauer says such a statistic and historical titbit is hardly relevant.

Today they will be as cold as ice!
