Simba Head Coach Fadlu Davids has commended his players for their fighting spirit and morale in the game against Mashujaa Fc and managed to emerge with a 1-0 victory
Fadlu said it was not easy especially after Mashujaa scored an early goal which added pressure to them while their opponents used every opportunity to waste time
The South African coach said the goals are to win all the away matches and now they are focusing on the next three matches
"I said from the beginning, away matches are not victories until you play, we have to fight in every game to ensure we get three points, I am happy to see my players today (yesterday) have fought and achieved their goals"
"It was not easy especially after conceding an early goal. Mashujaa tried to slow us down every time by wasting time, but we knew we had to fight harder"
"We knew in advance that it would be a difficult match since we came from South Africa to play a difficult match against Stellenbosch, this is how we have to play to get three points even in difficult conditions"
"We are going to prepare for another difficult match against JKT Tanzania, in that game we will have the opportunity to use players like Ngoma (Fabrice), Ahoua (Jean) who did not play today"
"It is important to rotate the squad because we are facing a series of matches that are very close," said Fadlu
