Khama Billiat is happy to have played a starring role in Kaizer Chiefs’ 2-2 draw against SuperSport United in their MTN8 first-leg semi-final clash, but he insists that more can be done as a collective.

Chiefs head into the all-important second-leg with two away goals after the Zimbabwean scored and provided an assist for Leonardo Castro’s second of the tournament.

‘I want to thank God with yet another opportunity. It’s always great to be out here getting this opportunity of playing football, which is what we always want to do,’ Billiat said in post-match comments.

‘I think [it was a] better second-half, we reacted accordingly and applied what the coach wanted us to do by passing the balls in between and finding each other.

‘Brilliant goal from Castro, it’s always something that we work on. Hopefully, we will work more on the combinations, score goals and win games.

‘But great performance from the guys, we really worked hard and it’s just a good feeling. More effort needs to be put in the second leg.

‘When the result is like this, we feel more pressure and we cannot let it go anymore. We have to give our best. Score goals and try not to concede,’ he concluded.

The two sides resume their rivalry in the second-leg of the fixture which will be played on Saturday night at the FNB Stadium with kickoff set for 8:15pm.
