“We know we’re still very far off from what we can do, very far off and we can still do more,” Mokwena told SuperSport.

“You can talk about how good was Rushine [De Reuck] today, how good was Brian Onyango today, how good was Andile Jali today, Neo [Maema] again also very good tactically.

“Peter Shalulile works his socks off for the team like always, you can talk about a complete team performance but it’s good to see Marcelo, let’s be patient with him.

“He’s still has a lot to do, to adapt to the club but we know what he can do, the club has worked very hard to bring him on board and congratulations to the management for a very good recruitment.
