The
Premier Soccer League is a marathon Masandawana (Mamelodi Sundowns supporters).
You win some and lose some. That's how soccer is. Our disappointing lost (Mamelodi
Sundowns 0-1 Kaizer Chiefs) does not mean we cannot win the league.
We
are still on course and were beaten by a team (Kaizer Chiefs) who will never
take the league. We must also not forget that we are still building with a new
coach (Johan Neeskens) and some new players. There are some positive things we
can focus on rather than troubling ourselves with negative things.
For
instance Deco (Teko Modise) is totally back. He has been consistent with his
form for past four consecutive games including of Sunday’s one against Amakhosi.
We have discovered a marvelous player in Themba Mangethe. He needs to be taken
care of as he has a great potential.
Our
supporters came in great numbers and I was pleased to see them clapping hands
for encouragement to players after the game. They were also vibrant even
outside the Loftus Versfeld Stadium after end of the game. Chiefs supporters looked unhappy despite the win. Let
us keep the spirit of support as we turn our focus to the next game.
