Edmore Chirambadare says Kaizer Chiefs are still taking it game by game and not worrying about their title rivals.
Chirambadare’s comments came after Amakhosi were unable to get three points against Baroka, who gave as good as they got in the 2-2 draw.
‘I was happy with my performance,’ Chirambadare said, reflecting on his performance. ‘I want to continue like that. I will continue pushing to improve and to contribute to the team’s overall performance.’
Last Saturday’s game was Chirambadare’s tenth start in a league game wearing the Gold and Black jersey. He came on as a substitute in two more fixtures. He is yet to open his league scoring account.
The speedy Zimbabwean winger was, of course, less happy about the team not getting a win against minnows and relegation candidates Baroka.
‘They were very good on the day,’ admitted the 25-year-old. ‘Their defence was well organised and they played to their strength of man marking. They didn’t leave us any space for our forwards to manoeuvre.
‘A draw was not what we were looking for. We were fighting for a win. However, as much as we are disappointed with the draw, we will keep pushing until the last match of the season.’
Chiefs trail log leaders Cape Town City by three points with both teams having played 21 matches.
‘We haven’t started counting points and the number of the games remaining,’ the Zimbabwean concludes.
‘We are still taking it game by game at this stage.’
Kaizer Chiefs face Mamelodi Sundowns on 1 April. The match at the FNB Stadium kicks off at 20:15.
