In spite of some colleagues in the Premier Soccer League (PSL) conceding that Sundowns have virtually wrapped up the league title race, Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter has refused to throw in the towel.
Baxter and his Chiefs side are preparing to jostle their Soweto rivals Orlando Pirates in a DStv Premiership match at Orlando Stadium on Saturday at 3pm.
"I don’t like to comment on what the Pirates coach says, because he is looking at things from a Pirates perspective. I’m not in their camp, I don’t want to validate or not validate what he says,” said Baxter on Thursday. “We are in a position where, when I checked the log table, we are three games [behind Sundowns] which is nine points potentially. Plus we have to play Sundowns in one of the games,” said Baxter.
“So, rational sane people will not agree with me, but that is what we have to do as professionals, to find the reason for winning every game. Our supporters want to support a successful team, not a team that throws in the towel. We won’t do that.
