Orlando Pirates' Riveiro elated by players after another milestone - 'It is unique... one more memorable game remaining'

Orlando Pirates are aiming at winning their fourth Cup title in two seasons after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/confirmed-mamelodi-sundowns-to-clash-with-orlando-pirates-in-the-nedbank-cup-final-after-stellenbosch-win/blt8374e1173127c555" target="_blank">reaching the Nedbank Cup final</a> where they will play Mamelodi Sundowns.The Sea Robbers are the defending champions and coach Jose Riveiro is hoping to get his second silverware this season after the MTN8 triumph early in the season.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"It's quite unique to be in four finals in a row, I think it's not frequent. It tells a lot of good things about the process that we are going through in our club and our team," the Spaniard told the media."I [told] the players after the [win over Chippa United]... that they showed us the way to compete and play these types of games."This is a team achievement, the level of ambition of the team in these types of tournaments, the level of commitment and way of competing, it doesn't matter [that some of the players have left]."We are not just winning in these tournaments, but playing memorable games for us; we're going to play one more that will be in our memories forever," Riveiro continued."At the same time, the team right now is different from the one of last season. To win the Nedbank Cup last season, it was pick and shovel; like working very hard in every game."

WHAT RIVEIRO SAID

Pirates, coincidentally, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/news/sipho-chaine-the-hero-for-orlando-pirates-as-soweto-giants-humble-mamelodi-sundowns-to-reclaim-mtn8-title/blte10776e1b5d71233" target="_blank">beat Sundowns in the MTN8 final back in October 2023</a> to successfully defend their title.It is interesting to see whether Bucs will complete a double over Masandawana - who have already won the African Football League and the Premier Soccer League, in Cup competitions.In the league, the Brazilians won 1-0 away before drawing 1-1 at home meaning the Nedbank Cup final will be highly contested.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Having won the league, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/mokwena-now-sweating-on-mosimane-s-long-standing-psl-record-why-not-why-not-go-for-it/bltd5a5af828165570f" target="_blank">Masandawana are now aiming at breaking a 71-point record</a> set by Pitso Mosimane in the 2015/16 season.Bucs are chasing a top-two finish to qualify for the 2024/25 Caf Champions League; they are currently three points behind second-placed Stellenbosch.
