Pirates will regroup - Matlaba

Cape Town - Orlando Pirates defender Thabo Matlaba insists his side will bounce back after their latest PSL setback.

Orlando Pirates slumped to a second Absa Premiership defeat from their last three matches when they fell 2-1 to Black Aces on Tuesday night.

Despite the loss, injured left back Thabo Matlaba believes his side will regroup and go forward.

Matlaba continues to remain sidelined following an Achilles tendon injury picked up on national team duty and faces a race against time to be fit for the November 1 showdown against Kaizer Chiefs.

The 26-year-old defender took to Twitter to voice his faith in the Buccaneers:
