Kurt Lentjies Proud of The Display He Saw From is Chippa United Side! The Chilli Boys suffered a loss away to Masandawana yesterday.
Chippa United lost 2-0 away to league champions Mamelodi Sundowns in the DSTV Premiership last night. Head coach Kurt Lentjies witnessed a very spirited performance from his troops.
The Chilli Boys went down to 10-men in the middle of the first half when midfielder Siphesihle Mkhize saw red for a dangerous tackle on Thabiso Kutumela. However, this did not deter the application from the away side.
Instead, they soldiered on and even created more chances.
However, Andile Jali and Teboho Mokoena scored the two goals which saw the away side fall to a second consecutive PSL defeat.
“The game just swung 25 minutes after the red card.” Lentjies said to SuperSport TV after the loss.
“It throws every plan that you can think of out of the window but okay what can we do?
“I can’t ask for more than what the boys have given. I’m very proud of them, obviously the result is not what we wanted okay, onto the next one.
“It was coming, we knew how to attack, and the boys did everything that was asked from them. Even when we’re playing with ten men, to show the characteristics, how strong we are,
“But I’m excited for the boys. I’m excited for the next 12 games.
“They should keep their heads up, I’m proud of them, I couldn’t ask for more, let’s see how it goes.
“Ja [the hunger shown] throughout the game, I told the guys ‘Leave everything on the field, we’re not in control of results but what we can control is the attitude’ so we dedicate our work to God in everything that we do, we give him glory.
“That’s why ten men on the field of play they still give everything. Like I said I can’t ask for more than that,” he spoke.
The Chilli Boys will now focus on building on the very positive performance. Kurt Lentjies Proud of The Display He Saw From is Chippa United Side!
