Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane admits that Amakhosi should have done better during a 1-0 win over Orlando Pirates.
Chiefs collected their second win in five DStv Premiership fixtures when they defeated the Buccaneers at the FNB Stadium on Saturday.

Even with Bucs captain Inncoent Maela sent off in the 60th minute, Amakhosi struggled to break the deadlock and it took an own goal from Pirates' Olisa Ndah to settle the tie.
Zwane admits his side could have done better in capitalising on chances.
"We created about two or three clear clear-cut chances that we should have capabilities on. Then we had to go to half time and 0-0," Zwane said.
"In the second half, we said let’s pile more pressure on them. Let’s force them to make more mistakes and we forced them to make a mistake, especially when Inno [Innocent Maela] was sent off.
"From there we took the foot off the peddle. We could have done better in terms of creating space and exploiting space and getting the right play at the right time and we were just playing in front of them because we knew that they would play the counter game.
"I believe we could have done better in the final third entry in terms of creating more goal-scoring opportunities and capitalising on them.
"We got lucky, we forced them with the goal that we scored. It was a great ball from Dove and had we had more of those diagonal balls I think we could have gotten something out of it.
Chiefs will have another chance to make up ground on the log table when they take on Richards Bay on Saturday.
