Mabasa: I'm critical on the chances that I miss

Orlando Pirates striker Tshegofatso Mabasa has revealed a target he has set for himself after reaching the 13th goal mark in the league season with a brace against Cape Town City.

Mabasa's brace against City handed them a 2-0 victory that increased their chances of finishing second and qualifying for the CAF Champions League.

The former Bloemfontein Celtic striker inevitably walked away with the Man of the Match award.
