Mdantsane said all the previous results for Chiefs against Galaxy will not count when the two DStv Premiership sides meet this weekend, he told Sowetan.

The two premiership clubs have met on eight occasions and out of those eight meetings, Chiefs boast just a single win with five draws and two defeats.

“What happened previously, we have to let it go. What’s important is now. Galaxy are a different team now compared to last season and we are also a different team, so I really don’t think history will play any role in Sunday’s game,” Mdantsane told Sowetan.

The former Baroka midfielder preferred to downplay coach Molefi Ntseki’s praise after their MTN8 win over City.

Ntseki said Chiefs missed a player of Mdantsane’s calibre, but the creative playmaker believes everyone is important at Naturena.

“Everyone in the team is important. It’s not about me but it’s about working together to achieve our collective goal of making our fans happy by winning things,” Mdantsane added.

Following the win as they beat the Citizens and Chiefs set to face Mamelodi Sundowns in the semi-finals, Mdantsane now banks on the high spirits in camp.

“The spirit among the squad is amazing…everyone wants to win and fight for everything that’s on offer.”
