Chippa United coach, Lehlohonolo Seema, believes that his side is not yet out of the woods despite beating Richards Bay in the previous match.
The Chilli Boys came 2-0 down to beat Richards Bay 3-2 in the DStv Premiership. “The guys worked hard and they deserve to win the game against Richards Bay because they dug deep,” Seema said.
“I also allowed them to celebrate their victory after the match because the following day we had to prepare for our next opponents because we know exactly where we are. We are not yet out of the woods.
“But the mood is ok, it’s not a relaxed mood. It’s a mood of people that know that they are not yet safe.”
With two matches remaining before the end of the season, Chippa United are currently lying on position 15 on the log – three points ahead of Maritzburg United at the bottom. Chilli Boys’ next match is against TS Galaxy.
“Where I arrived here, I told the guys that we have four Cup finals,” said Seema. “At the moment everyone is trying to fight for anything. It’s not about us going to a team that is not out of the woods yet, we will try to get maximum points because every game we win is important and we don’t have to know how other teams are doing.
“We just have to focus and get three points. It’s going to be a difficult game because TS Galaxy is hard to beat especially when playing at home. They don’t concede too many goals but we are preparing well and we are coming from a win [against Richards Bay].”
