'We needed to give it all and we managed to do that' Swallows FC defender Kwanda Mngonyama hailed the performance and spirit of the team after their 2-1 win over Kaizer Chiefs on Monday afternoon. Read more ▶️
Both teams entered the match high on confidence after the Amakhosi scraped past Chippa United last Friday before Swallows edged out bottom-placed Maritzburg United.
The win took the Dube Birds into the top eight from the bottom-half bracket, while the loss ended the Glamour Boys hopes to secure second spot and CAF Champions League football next season.“We knew it was not going to be an easy game at all. We needed to give it all and we managed to do that not me alone but as a team as a collective. We needed this three points and thanks God we managed to get these three points,” Mngonyama told SuperSport TV.
Needing to stay switch-on particularly towards the conclusion where the Amakhosi launched wave and wave of attacks was of utter importance for the visitors in their quest to land maximum points. “Yes, we needed to hang in there as much as we can because we knew the moment that we still leading they were going to come at us.
“But then we needed to stay strong as much as we can and eventually we managed to do that and we eventually got the three points,” Mngonyama said.
