Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has insisted that even when people started to doubt their title credentials, he never lost hope, thanks to his experience.
I have the humility to say that I played a little bit of football during his heyday he played for teams like English topflight side Fulham and Greek giants Olympiacos not to say too much ... I played in some interesting leagues as well and I just have some experience and I know that you cant sell a bears skin before you kill the bear, Ouaddou explained.
A lot of people were already saying we had lost the title, but I knew that as long as we were still mathematically in it, we had to continue playing and I tried to explain that to the people.
