Gavin Hunt, head coach of Chippa United, during the DStv Premiership match against Royal AM at Chatsworth Stadium on September 12 2021 in Durban.Chippa United coach Gavin Hunt said they deserved at least a point from their 1-0 defeat by Royal AM last weekend.
The result turned out to be their first defeat of the DStv Premiership campaign after a satisfactory start where they beat Sekhukhune United and managed a credible draw with defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns. “It was really disappointing because we deserved more from the game but we couldn't get what we wanted," said Hunt as Chippa continued with their preparations to host Orlando Pirates at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth on Saturday.
Hunt and his players will be under some sort of pressure going into the match against Pirates as they know that another defeat is likely to attract the attention of club owner Siviwe"Chippa" Mpengesi who is known to be impatient with poor results."I thought we really worked our socks off and I am proud of the players. I don’t know if it was a penalty I couldn’t see from where I was sitting.
Hunt said he was disappointed with his team’s play in certain areas of the game and there he has identified where they must improve.in certain areas but we will keep grinding away.
