Coetzee returned to action against AmaZulu in a MultiChoice Diski Challenge match, where coach David Notwane was happy with his performance, but warned against rushing the former Ajax Cape Town defender into the senior team, saying the Bafana Bafana international needs to get his match fitness levels up and regain his confidence.
“We need to give him some time and the space for him to reach his best form before we send him to the senior team. these things take some time but we are seeing some good progress.”
