“The consistent trend now is that we give zero chances to the opposition, we limit to maybe 1 on average from the past 4 games and if they score [like with] Sekhukhune it was a free kick and a mistake that we shouldn’t have made,” Mokwena said.

“Against Chiefs the goal we conceded was a mistake, in fact there’s five errors before that goal came, which we have analyzed and that was their only chance. Against Swallows, no chances, really, really limited crosses and no shots.”

“We just just use the energy whether positive or negative to just galvanize us and push us to the next level, in relation to the strikers if we can get Thapelo [Morena] back quickly and if we can get [Abubeker] Nasir back also very quickly, I think we we are in a decent situation, of course we have to look and see whether or not we will go into the market and so that’s that’s a space for the sporting director and the club,” Mokwena said.
