Josef Zinnbauer opens up over Orlando Pirates experience, dancing and Lorch song

Orlando Pirates coach Josef Zinnbauer has opened up about a bet he made with one of his players that led to a video of him going viral on social media.

Zinnbauer may have arrived in South Africa just over two months ago but he has quickly settled in at Pirates – both professionally and socially.

He is often seen enjoying close relations with his technical staff and players, and a recent video went viral in which he was seen dancing to a local song in the dressing room.

The German has since opened up on his experience since arriving on the continent in December and explained what led to him showing off a lighter side.

"We have a lot of good experience in the team, I have no experience in Africa, but I have no time at the moment; my first day was here and my home is Rand Stadium," said Zinnbauer.

"The [Lorch] song is very good, it's often being played in the dressing room and the guys are always dancing there – they have fun, and that's good.

"But my dancing was a once-off thing that just came in the team, it was one day, I said to one player, 'When we win, we make a dance together', this is something we agreed before.

"So, I made the little dance and there was hype outside, I don't know, through the press."
