Kaizer Chiefs head coach Fernando Da Cruz says the performance his side produced against Kruger United is the standard he wants to see throughout the season.
Amakhosi began their Betway Premiership campaign with an impressive 3-1 victory over the newly promoted side.
Flavio Da Silva opened the scoring before Wandile Duba grabbed a second-ha; f brace, while Khethukuthula Ndlovu netted the hosts’ only goal.
After the match, Da Cruz was asked about Chiefs’ control of the game, particularly their tempo and efficiency in possession.
The French mentor said that is the level of performance he expects from his team every time they take to the field.
He added that while he was pleased with the display, there is still room for improvement, especially in managing the rhythm of matches more effectively.
“What they showed today is what you expect from every game,” said Da Cruz on SuperSport.
“But sometimes we need to manage the tempo, slow and fast, slow and fast.
“It depends on the tempo of the game. But we will learn step by step and we will increase.”
