Daylon Claasen Confident That Maritzburg United Will Turn Things Around!

Daylon Claasen Confident That Maritzburg United Will Turn Things Around! The Team of Choice have lost their opening two league matches of the season.

Maritzburg United travel to face Baroka FC in the DSTV Premiership this weekend. Midfielder Daylon Claasen is upbeat as they aim to claim their first points of the season.

The Team of Choice lost 2-1 away to Golden Arrows in their first league game of the season. This was followed by a disappointing 2-0 loss at home to newly promoted Sekhukhune United.

They have had two weeks to try to fix things, due the gap provided by the international break.

They will be boosted by a heroic return by Bongokuhle Hlongwane. The youngster scored the winning goal for Bafana Bafana against Ghana in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

“We’re working hard to try and rectify the wrongs of the past two games,” he said to the club media.

“The past is the past and our focus now is firmly on that Baroka game. I feel the team understands the situation we’re in, it’s not a place we want to be, and everyone is aware of that.

“So, we’ll be aiming for a positive result against Baroka, who won’t be easy, especially because we are facing them in Polokwane. But we’re confident and hopefully we’ll get the result we desire.”

They suffered the same fate at the beginning of last season. They wouldn’t want a repeat a year later.

“The break has allowed us to regroup. It was tough losing that last game, but the time off has allowed us to reflect.

“The confidence also took a knock after losing the last game, but now we feel a bit refreshed mentally and ready for this challenge.

“We’ve worked hard on the areas that needed improving and hopefully this will be our turnaround.” The midfielder added.

Kick-off for the game tomorrow is 17h00. Daylon Claasen Confident That Maritzburg United Will Turn Things Around!
