Orlando Pirates coach Nasreddine Nabi says he is armed with the experience, expertise and confidence to secure the South African Nedbank Cup final in Durban.

This year’s Cup final features two glamourous clubs in Soweto and it promises to be a thrilling encounter on Saturday. Pirates will lock horns with Kaizer Chiefs at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

Pirates are brimming with confidence, having secured a 2-1 win over their sworn rivals at the weekend in a Premier League fixture.

Nabi has gained the experience in Cup matches, having secured five consecutive finals across three counties, namely, Morocco, Tanzania and now South Africa. He managed to reach the finals on three occasions in Tanzania and one each in Morocco and South Africa.

And the Tunisian trainer believes he is experienced enough to snatch the title over their worn rivals this weekend.

“I played in the final last season with AS FAR (against Raja Casablanca). It was 1-1 and just one mistake, and we lost the game. In the last five seasons, I have been in five finals. Three in Tanzania, one in Morocco and now one in South Africa. I think I have experience in finals. In finals, you need self-control. You don’t receive pressure in the finals, and I know my approach with the players. Honestly, I have the momentum and I know how to approach (win) the finals”.

“I respect the fans. It’s normal to be disappointed when your team is losing. Also, me, I am not happy. I am the first person affected by the results. I would like to win this Nedbank Cup for the fans and I would thank the fans and thank them for the support of the team”. He concluded.
