Orlando Pirates defender Innocent Maela says they will come back brimming with confidence after the festive break.
The Buccaneers ended the year with a 3-1 victory over Black Leopards in a Premier Soccer League (PSL) match in Soweto on Saturday.
Maela opened the scoring for the Soweto giants as they finished the year in position five on the league standings.
"It was very important for us to win the match and go into the holidays having pleased our fans," Maela told the media.
"We also had to go into the holidays happy as a team and make sure that when we come back we have a few things that we need to work on.
