Platinum Stars 0



Kaizer Chiefs (2) 0 (Letsholonyane 20' Lebese 33')



Coach Baxter saw his side confirming their recent form by another convincing win coupled with a neat passing game. It was another top drawer display from the team. Baxter expressed delight following the fourth league in a row.



Summarizing his thoughts about the overall picture as he saw it tonight,



"It was a tricky game to play again against the same team in such a space of time. We started well and after we scored through 'Yeye', we new they would throw caution to the wind and try to come at us," said Baxter,



Chiefs are unbeaten since the start of the season,



"We have now gone the seven games with only one goal conceded. We want to continue in the same way. It will be a good ratio. We are aware the road ahead will come up with tough games coming, that is why we have to keep our feet on the ground," commented Baxter.



The win here again?



"They have caused us trouble in the past and to come here and beat them is pleasing. When we were leading 2 - 0, I thought we played dangerously because if they had scored one, that would have changed the complexion of the game," said Baxter.



What makes your team look so unstoppable?



"It is difficult to score against us at this stage. We have a back four that minimizes the danger so well. What we just need to do is to convert our own chances and carry on with performance."



What does this good performance signal going forward?



"It is a challenge, we must now take this performance to the next game. We have to work hard to maintain the momentum. Parker and Shabba are coming back to add more competition in the team, which is good for us," said Baxter.



We are back on top of the log with a full complement of points from the four games played so far this season.



Platinum Stars: Dambe; Mere, Gumede, Mpeta, Saemenya, Madubanya, Mathe, Msomi, Nguzana (R. Manzini 90+1'), Mabena, Malokase (Makudubela 71')



Kaizer Chiefs: Khune; Gaxa, Mashamaite, Mathoho, Masilela, Letsholonyane, Katsande, Masango, Lebese (Gould 75'), Maluleka (Tshabalala 85'), Nkhatha (Mthembu 90')
