The full-back, who was on the score-sheet for The Buccaneers, showed massive concern at his side’s inability to overcome visitors in league matches at Orlando Stadium.
Pirates collected just one point from two home matches played so far in the current Absa Premiership campaign.
But Matlaba says that despite failing to win the match that they will not give up.
“We already dropped five points at home. That is not good,” said Matlaba on the clubs website.
“We understand our problem so, we will go back to training and we must fix it.”
“I don't think we played bad.”
“We made a mistake at the back and AmaZulu took advantage of that but we are not worried because we can change things very quick.”
Matlaba sternly states that he’s side are just too nice to opponents at the Orlando and feels their aggression should increase on match days.
