After the game, Nabi promised the Amakhosi fans that the sauce that they are cooking at Naturena is coming along.

“As we said earlier the game was not going to be easy, we happened to score early in the game but after we noticed at the end of the first half, we let the opponent take control of the game. We tried to rectify that in the second half and the performance was good and we won,” Nabi told SuperSport TV.

“Step by step, step by step, we will come back. We go step by step, with no pressure, we work seriously and Kaizer Chiefs I promise you in the future we will come back. Now we don’t come back, but we will come back, step by step.”

Several players from the club’s development structures seemed to be blossoming under Nabi. The likes of Mduduzi Shabalala, Wandile Duba and Mfundo Vilakazi have not become regulars in the first team, but are enjoying themselves as evident at FNB Stadium on Saturday where Vilakazi was entertaining the crowd with his trickery.

Nabi says the future is bright for Chiefs.

“They [Chiefs youngsters] are very good players and we feel that those are the present and future of the club and we just need to add some ingredients but we feel that the sauce that we are cooking is coming along,” commented Nabi.
