The head coach went on to bemoan the amount of chances they failed to take in the encounter.

“Yeah, but that’s our story. The entire season, we create a lot of chances. Today I thought we played very, very well.

“Lesedi [Kapinga] was good, [Surprise] Ralani was good, Sipho was good, [Thabiso] Kutumela came on and was good. Mosa [Lebusa] was very good and scored an important goal for us. Rushine [De Reuck] came on and was very good.

“So yes, some very good performances. [Mothobi] Mvala was good, Riva [Rivaldo Coetzee] was good, it was good to see Riva on the pitch. One full year (since he played) actually.
