“It doesn’t happen by accident that this team all of a sudden is coming to life, no, we’re aware about it that of course if you go with this intensity in the first-half, I know with the players that we have we probably get a second chance.

“And we had one or two second chances where we could have buried the game, it’s 2-0. In the end it was pressure of course coming in from this team from Johannesburg, no doubt about it but in the end I think we should have scored the second goal, that for me was the turning point.
