Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>Orlando Pirates head coach Woody Jacobs blamed first-half technical errors for their 1-3 loss against African Stars in the Debmarine Premiership on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The log leaders (African Stars) scored all three goals in the first half through Dynamo Fredericks in the 6th minute, Awilo Stephanus\u2019 long-range shot in the 22nd minute with Edmund Kambanda scoring from a corner kick in the 24th minute.<\/p>\n

Pirates scored in the second half shortly before the game ended.<\/p>\n

Jacobs admitted that errors cost the team crucial points, and that the players\u2019 mentality was shifted after falling behind by three goals.<\/p>\n

He said there were lessons learned from the defeat, and changes would be made in future tough encounters. \u201cIt was due to errors that we made in the first half; the way we considered the goals, they walked through (over) us. We were nai\u0308ve in the way that we defended that first goal; we made an error that led to the second goal, and you could see that the players\u2019 heads were dropping,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter we tried to restore the team\u2019s momentum, we happened to concede the third goal through unchallenged and nai\u0308ve defending. I think the mentality was not there after the three goals; it\u2019s not easy to come back from three goals down.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, African Stars head coach Mervin Mbakera was pleased with his team\u2019s performance but disappointed with the goal they conceded in the last minute.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe played a good game, as the players brought their A-game. The team had high energy, and we managed to score three goals. But I am disappointed with the way we conceded the goal in the last minute, which was not good. It is not good for us to concede at this point,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In other Saturday fixtures, Black Africa won 4-0 against Citizen, Eleven Arrows drew 2-2 with Life Fighters, Tigers defeated Young Brazilian 4-1 and Tura Magic won 3-2 over Mighty Gunners.<\/p>\n

Okahandja United and Unam drew 0-0, while Blue Waters defeated Julinho Sporting. Civics suffered a 2-3 defeat to Young African.<\/p>\n
