Ouaddou stresses key moments before MTN8 final

Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou says his team must manage pressure and key moments to beat Mamelodi Sundowns in the MTN8 final, where Pirates are seeking a fifth consecutive title. He stressed starting strongly, defending with discipline, and converting the limited chances typical of a knockout match, while senior players will need to guide the younger squad and provide creativity. Ouaddou said preparations have gone well despite some players being away on international duty; midfielder Sihle Nduli is still recovering from injury and is unlikely to be ready.
