"Thanks to my players, they always motivate me. I didn't start well in the first-half and we conceded the goal but we managed to come back and I'm very happy that we won away, it gives us a boost going back to Orlando, so very happy with the result," Maswanganyi told SuperSport.
"I think at half-time the coach told us to relax, we're gonna get goals and we're very happy that we managed to follow the instructions and we managed to score two goals away from home, so very happy with the performance."
Maswanganyi did add that while he is happy to set up his teammates, he wants to start adding goals to his game.
"I think it also comes (down) to the individual, if you're doing well, you always want to do well, I think with the players that we have and the coaches, it's very easy for me to adapt and to do well. So I'm very happy with my performance as well," he said.
"I'm very happy that I'm able to give them assists and playing as a ten I also want to score goals, as well, in the next game I'll probably score," he added.
