“From now on there is nothing much we can do. We prayed before the game that we don’t go to extra time, but it is what it is,” Maduka said.
“We’ve to be flexible going into the Sundowns game because we also have a couple of injuries, so we have to see how we will be able to manage the players and try as much as we can to do everything we can to make sure they recover before we play against Sundowns.
“If some don’t recover it means we don’t have a choice but to make sure that we rotate, we still have good players that were not in the squad that can also represent the team well.” Despite playing 120 minutes, Maduka feels this is the best time for his side to play Masandawana as they are unbeaten since he rejoined the club.
“We know that they are a very difficult team to play against and we know what they are capable of,” he said. “I think it is the right time to play them where the confidence and the belief of the players are high and we played a lot of matches now and we are undefeated.”Swallows v Arrows, Dobsonville 7.30pm; Stellenbosch v AmaZulu, Danie Craven 7.30pm.Sekhukhune v Chippa, Peter Mokaba 3.30pm; Pirates v SuperSport, Orlando 5.45pm; Maritzburg v Chiefs, Harry Gwala 8pm.
