Chiefs’ Da Cruz thanks Motaung Jnr for show of faith
'You must know that we are very clear inside the club,' said the Chiefs head coach.
Kaizer Chiefs' head coach Fernando Da Cruz expressed gratitude to Sporting Director Kaizer Motaung Jnr for his unwavering support following the team's elimination from the Caf Confederation Cup. Da Cruz praised Motaung Jnr and the club's board for a statement released after the defeat, acknowledging their role in providing the necessary confidence for the team.
Da Cruz stated that the coaching staff meets regularly to discuss the team and project, emphasizing the importance of these meetings in analyzing the situation and improving the team. The coach highlighted the team's resilience, despite being unlucky with draws and injuries, and noted that they were not better coaches last week compared to today.
Da Cruz also mentioned that despite the elimination, the team is unbeaten in the current Premiership season, having drawn five of the eight games played. The upcoming Betway Premiership Soweto derby against Orlando Pirates, seen as a potential opportunity to overturn the Confederation Cup loss, is a crucial match for Chiefs to target.
