Following their goal, Kaizer Chiefs pressed hard for the equaliser and had several opportunities to do so, but failed to make them count.

“Disappointed with the result,” Gavin Hunt told SuperSport TV.

“Thought we deserved a draw. It didn’t come but you know we are on the backfoot in the first half. Disappointing.

“We’ve led games this year and we’ve thrown it away. We should have got a point here tonight, that’s for sure. The final ball let us down. They also had chances but all in all we looked a bit heavy-legged. So it wasn’t good.

“Every game is important. From the start. So its no different. We’ve got to regroup now and go again on Sunday. Lots of work.”
