“It’s always difficult after the FIFA break to be able to come back.” Mokwena said to the media after the match.

“Particularly because there isn’t a lot of training time, you missing a couple of players with regards to preparations. There are also players coming back from different playing concepts and spaces.

“We showed resilience and a good fight in a very difficult away match with very difficult conditions. And against a very good team that was motivated and fought for 90 minutes.”

“For us the first half wasn’t very good, we made a lot of unforced errors. We struggled a little bit with the boxes today.

“Only in the first half we managed the two build ups that they got. We created chances immediately from those two scenarios, including the penalty when they started from the back.

“They then went long and played off the second ball, which forced us a little bit, to drag our line a little bit deeper and our turnovers were far too much.” He added.
