Kaizer Chiefs head coach Steve Komphela insists his side’s 1-1 draw against Bidvest Wits felt worse than a defeat.
Amakhosi was forced to share the spoils with the Clever Boys at Bidvest Stadium after Lehlohonolo Majoro cancelled out Ryan Moon’s first-half opener.
Komphela says he is frustrated by the way his side conceded the equalising goal while stating his disappointment at dropping points away from home.
“The feeling is worse than a loss. A draw that you honestly did not have to play to. The manner in which we conceded, we can’t defend a basic cross and you know Bidvest will be looking to bring crosses into the box,” Komphela told SuperSport TV after the game.
“If it happens, it happens but we could have done better. There is no reason the ball should find Majoro unmarked there.
“Towards the end we had two brilliant chances. They (Wits) did get chances through our lapses of concentration.
He added: “I’m just angry that we lost the match at a time where you want every point. Tonight’s point won’t value that much because we could have won that match.
“There were stages where I thought we were getting to desperate. Instead of just being calm and taking our actions, and the minute you are in a rush, the process won’t come through.”
Kaizer Chiefs will now turn their attention to the Nedbank Cup when they welcome Golden Arrows to the FNB Stadium on Sunday, with kick-off set for 15:30.
