Wedson insists he is not under pressure

Wedson Nyirenda insists he can handle the pressure despite his poor start at South Africa PSL club Baroka FC.

The ex-Chipolopolo coach’s side is second from bottom on the log with 6 points from nine matches and are winless in their last seven games in which Baroka have collected three draws.

“I am used to pressure, but I am not comfortable with losing games. I don’t like that. I am a man who is used to celebrating all the time. Wherever I go I create impact, but it’s not coming, so what do I do?” Nyirenda told South African media.

Nyirenda guided Zesco to their debut league title in 2007 and retained in the following season before taking it with him to Zanaco in 2009.

He later felt Ferroviario Beira on the cusp of their subsequent debut league title in 2016 to take up the Chipolopolo job.

“I can turn things. The only problem is putting the ball in the back of the net,” Nyirenda said.

Baroka,who suffered their second Polokwane derby defeat on Wednesday following a 1-0 away loss at Black Leopards, host fifth placed SuperSport United on Sunday.

  1. Mr Nyirenda you have a blunt striking force; it is the same problem the previous coach had; It must be fixed and it must be done soon before you pack your bags.

  2. Trouble with Wesson is that he is all too knowing. My prediction is that he won’t last in that job. Mark my word
