Chippa United players feeling the heat as relegation battle goes down to the wire

“The only thing we need is to win on Saturday and maybe we will see ourselves out of the relegation zone or maybe we go to the play-offs. We can’t run away from that. 

“If we go to the play-offs, we have to go for it and work together as a team so that we keep the status of Chippa United in the Premier Soccer League.” 

Mbenyane said the pressure is getting to some of the young players in the team. 

“It is tough for these youngsters. But, as you saw in our game against Richards Bay, there youngster Aviwe Mqokozo scored a goal and it shows that he has a big heart. 

“We still have to push ourselves and once we start being worried more about the youngsters we will forget that we have to focus on playing and saving the club. 

“We have been pushing from the start of the season. It was after the World Cup where our performances started going down. I spoke to the guys; we have been playing well before the November break and we have to bring that back.”
