We can beat anyone in the league – Manzini
“No, we will not allow Kaizer Chiefs to win. I believe the guys are ready for the game you know, and in the PSL any team can beat any team.” Tshakhuma attacker Rhulani Manzini told Kick-Off.
“It’s not going to be a walk in the park for Kaizer Chiefs. They’ve got their momentum but our guys are ready. It’s going to be a tight game you know so it’s not going to be a big score. I believe we have a chance to win.
“We don’t want to keep on losing you know because in the second round it’s going to be very difficult to get points. Chiefs are still vulnerable you know so we just have to go there and collect maximum points. We’ve been unfortunate but I think against Kaizer Chiefs we can the turn corner.”
