WHAT WAS SAID?
Chippa United co-head coach Kwanele Kopo
"I think for the first game for Coach Thabo [September] and myself, there's a lot of positives in us dominating the game [against Cape Town City]," Kopo said.
"In terms of the breaking and counter-attacks that we had, and all that let us down was finishing.
"I think we deserved to win this game, but as a first game, we take the point against number-two in the league, and we build on it."
