‘Assist-king’ Ndlovu urges Chiefs to keep their focus
'It is when we play other teams who are extra motivated to play us that we have to give equal focus,' said the Chiefs midfielder.
Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Siphesihle Ndlovu, dubbed the "Assist-King," has urged his team to maintain the same focus they displayed against Mamelodi Sundowns during their upcoming Betway Premiership match against Richards Bay. The 29-year-old midfielder provided a brilliant assist to Langelihle Phili's goal in the 1-1 draw against the African champions at FNB Stadium.
Ndlovu stated that while it's easy to give a solid performance against big rivals, focusing equally against motivated teams is essential. The Chiefs have secured two wins in their last three Premiership games, including a 3-1 victory against Kruger United and a 2-0 triumph over Sekhukhune. The only setback occurred in the MTN8 quarterfinals, where they lost 1-0 to Golden Arrows.
Ndlovu, who also earned the Man-of-the-Match award against Sundowns, praised his teammates, particularly midfield partners 'Ox' Mthethwa and Lebo Maboe, for their efforts. He emphasized that the team's performance is a collective achievement, acknowledging that he couldn't have achieved it alone.
