Lorch, who has now collected R200 000, was disappointed not to have advanced to the next round.
"When it comes to the game I think we started very well, we created a lot of chances you know. Like the coach told us before, the last game we played against Cape Town Spurs, we didn't start well. So today we had to start well, it's just that we didn't convert our chances," Lorch told SuperSport after the game.
"We always create chances and I don't blame anyone for not scoring. The goalkeeper saved the goals but we're very disappointed that we didn't go through," he said.
Lorch continued and bemoaned their hectic schedule of playing too many matches in a short space of time.
"It's not easy, you can see we're playing Wednesdays, weekends, so it's not easy, we just need to recover well you know, so we can focus on another game," he added.
