"The loss is history and against Bafana Bafana, it is a different game altogether," the interim coach said, as per SuperSport.
"I am sure we might perform differently against Bafana Bafana."
"We need to work on our defence. We also need to work on set-pieces. We were poor when it came to [defending] the set pieces," Tapera said.
"I am very much disappointed with the two goals we conceded in the first half. I am not happy at all. Those were basic defensive errors that we could have avoided," he said.
"But we regrouped in the second half. I think we were better off in the second half…we got so many chances. We thought we could have scored one or two goals but unfortunately, it was not our day."
