Ntseki Reflects on First Home Loss: ‘It’s a Difficult One to Explain’

KAIZER CHIEFS

On Saturday, Kaizer Chiefs suffered their first home defeat of the DStv Premiership season after going down 1-0 to Cape Town City. Despite dominating possession throughout the match, Amakhosi were unable to find a way past goalkeeper Darren Keet.

Head coach Molefi Ntseki opened up about the difficulty his side faced in trying to break down the Citizens’ defensive setup. He noted that the team stayed too deep and enjoyed possession in the wrong areas, which prevented them from putting their opponents under pressure.

Ntseki also pointed out that the Soweto giants failed to take advantage of the space in front of City’s centre-backs and were too late to get into the box.

He believes that if the team had been able to move the defenders and create more goal-scoring opportunities, the result may have been different.
