Cape Town - The untimely passing of goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa has strengthened the team spirit and sense of unity at Orlando Pirates, says coach Eric Tinkler.
The former Bafana Bafana midfield anchorman was speaking in the run-up to the Buccaneers' crucial CAF Confederations Cup clash against Gabon's CF Mounana on Saturday night.
"Our team spirit is from our great unity and you can see it from when Senzo passed on. We had to stick together and support each other," Tinkler told African Football.
