Work to be done by derby mocho

Orlando Pirates have much work to do if they are to have a chance in next Saturday’s Soweto derby even though they won on Saturday against Chippa United in the Telkom Knockout.
This is the opinion of coach Milutin Sredojevich after the narrow 1-0 triumph in the first round tie at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday.
“Our intention was to dominate and penetrate and convert our chances and at the same time to make sure we stuck to our defensive duties, especially when the opponent went on the transition.
“I was satisfied with the first half showing except we were not effective going forward although we believed the breakthrough might come.
“The fresh legs of Vincent Pule made an impact but after he scored we subconsciously started dropping back in the last part of the game to try and protect our lead. We were up against a well-organised side and we are happy to have gone through and progressed to the second round.
“But at the same time there are so many things to be corrected. We don’t want to hide behind the fact we have been on the Fifa break, we don’t want hide behind the fact that half of our mins were focus on next Saturday’s match against Kaizer Chiefs,” he said.
“We will have to critically look at what was right and wrong today and then move forward as we plan for the next match ahead of us.
“Everyone knows what the derby means and a week to the game to keep a clean sheet is good but at the same moment we cannot be blind to what happened on the field. We walked a tightrope that we could have fallen off at any moment. Our players worked very hard, the clean sheet is a positive and when the goal came it was also at the right time.
“But we need to critically look at what didn’t work. We cannot kid ourselves that everything was perfect because if we do that, we could hit the wall in front of 80 000 plus people next Saturday. We have one week to take care of a lot of critical things,” added Sredojevich.

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
