“We have experience of that. We had a 12-point gap once [in 2013-14]‚ when Sundowns took the league. And this is eight points.”
Maphosa got some stick from some commentators for his Tweet made on Wednesday that sixth-placed Chiefs‚ eight points behind leaders Orlando Pirates‚ can be back in the title race if they beat last-placed Maritzburg.
“It’s not a belief. It’s what we’ve planned for from the start of the season – to win the league‚” Maphosa said. “So we are in there. If we win the next match we are on 35 points‚ we are not far off; we still have a chance to go for it. “There are no runaway leaders or someone who has got 20 points like some other leagues in the world. It’s very tight.
