“It is becoming a tendency to start our games slow,” reflected Ernst Middendorp about Saturday night’s loss to Bloemfontein Celtic. “We have to rectify this, because we too often produce 0-1 situations and then we have to chase the game. We can’t continue this way.”

The visibly disappointed coach watched in disbelieve as Kaizer Chiefs succumbed to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Celtic.

Middendorp was forced to change his line-up due to injuries and a suspension. “We couldn’t field Khama Billiat due to some discomfort to his thigh, while Kgotso Moleko was suspended.

“Reeve Frosler hasn’t played regularly for a long time and we need to bring him up to speed slowly.”

Amakhosi will host Free State Stars at Nelspruit’s Mbombela Stadium on Saturday, 4 May. Kick-off is at 15:00.

“We will have to move on to prepare for that encounter,” concluded Middendorp about the Absa Premiership fixture against Stars. “We will work on our shortcomings and return to our winning ways.”
