Vladislav Heric Wants to Focus on Relegation Battle!

Vladislav Heric Wants to Focus on Relegation Battle! Chippa United lost out to Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila in the Nedbank Cup final last night.

The Chilli Boys fell behind to Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo’s first half goal. Heric’s men rallied after the goal concession and pressured Tshakhuma.

They were unable to find a way past Washington Arubi, despite dominating the rest of the game.

“We tried to approach this game like any other game without the pressure,” Heric told SuperSport TV.

“But unfortunately, first half an hour we didn’t exist. It is like we were enchanted.

“The last 15 minutes of the first half we started to play something, we started to recover from the shock of conceding a goal from that rebound. The first half from both sides there was no chances, and we get that cracker if I may say and then we were shocked.

“Second half, we came like a different team. We looked much more organised, much better, more offensive.

“We moved more but we couldn’t penetrate. We couldn’t create the chances.

“Maybe one or two but it was not enough for us to recover the game. It’s sad for those who work hard to be in a final and now to lose it.

“I believe that we must focus on the relegation campaign and try to get ourselves safe in the PSL. That’s the only way we can turn.”
