Ntseki On Chiefs' First Win: 'It Was Meant To Be'

Ntseki On Chiefs' First Win: 'It Was Meant To Be'

Kaizer Chiefs head coach Molefi Ntseki says all the players brought their 'A Game' after securing their first win of the season.

Goals from Ashley du Preez and Edson Castillo guided Chiefs to a come-from-behind victory over Kaizer Chiefs.

Ntseki feels the victory was much-needed after the loss to Mamelodi Sundowns earlier this week.

"Very positive result, the one that we needed, I think we said at the beginning of the game, 'This is our time, we have to turn things around'," Ntseki told SuperSport TV.

"It's the first win for the boys, for the club after so many chances we created today but I think it was meant to be. We brought in an A game, a good performance from each and everyone on the pitch and even those that were on the bench.

"And I must say well done to the boys, they deserve this. It's a win for the chairman, for the board, it's a win for our supporters," he said.

Ntseki added that they had been working the player's confident leading up to the clash, which was evident by their start.

"I think we worked more on the confidence and belief of our players, to say it's a cup game we can't be playing (only) in second half, we have to play from the first minute," he said.

"And I think when you look at how we started, we actually meant that and I think even if you look at the chances we created towards the last minutes of the game, the critical phase, we respected those critical phases and I think a win is a well done for the boys."
