Kaizer Chiefs head coach Nasreddine Nabi has highlighted that despite their 2-1 win over Richards Bay on Wednesday night, there is still a long journey ahead for the team to reach their full potential.
While the victory was important for keeping their momentum in the Betway Premiership, Nabi pointed out that his side needs to continue improving in several areas. Although the team showed determination to secure the win, the coach emphasized that consistency and further development are necessary if they aim to challenge for higher honors in the league.
The match saw Chiefs come from behind after Richards Bay took the lead, with goals from Wandile Duba and Ashley Du Preez. Chiefs played most of the second half with 10 men following Reeve Frosler’s red card, but despite being a man down, they were able to turn the game around and claim all three points.
After the match, Nabi spoke candidly, saying, “It’s a good win, but we still have a long way to go. There are many things we need to improve, especially in terms of our defensive setup and attacking play. We need to be more consistent and not let our guard down.”
The coach also praised the team’s resilience, particularly when playing with a numerical disadvantage. “The way the team kept fighting after going down to 10 men was impressive. We stayed focused and didn’t give up, and that’s the kind of mentality we need to develop,” Nabi added.
While the win helped Kaizer Chiefs climb up the standings, Nabi knows that more work is required. He is determined to continue improving the team’s performances on both ends of the pitch as they look to build on this victory.
Looking ahead, Chiefs fans will be hoping to see continued progress, while Nabi remains committed to pushing the team to greater heights as the season unfolds.
