Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Yusuf Maart has explained how they managed to turn the game around against SuperSport United on Saturday.

The Soweto giants secured their third win of the DStv Premiership season after coming from behind to beat SuperSport 2-1 courtesy of a brace by Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana.

Amakhosi did not panic after Grant Margeman gave Matsatsantsa an early lead and Maart, who was named Man of the Match, says they realised they needed to take the game to United to turn things around.

"Thank you to my teammates, the coaches for giving us the freedom to play and starting to enjoy," Maart told SuperSport after the game.

"We did very well and we got the three points that we wanted.

"Ja we started on the back foot but we realised if we take the game to them the game will be ours.

"And we did that, like the last 30 minutes, we took the game to them and we got what we wanted."

Maart was at the centre of Bimenyimana's equaliser after a first-touch through ball to Ashley Du Preez, who played a square pass for the Burundian to have a tap-in.

"It's something we do at training, third-man running and everything, Caleb just needs to stay in the box and he got what he wanted and I'm happy for him," he added.
