adminFC Platinum coach Norman Mapeza has admitted that his 10-men side was not impressive, despite edging Ngezi Platinum 1-0 away at Baobab Stadium on Monday, to maintain their 100 percent record in four games.
The platinum miners played the last 15 minutes with a man short, after midfielder Nqobizitha Masuku was red-carded but went on to hold on to Walter Musonaa��s fourth minute goal.
While they have collected a maximum 12 points in four matches, FC Platinum showed character by another away win in which they had to banish some numerical disadvantage.
But Mapeza has appeared to be a hard-to-please coach, admitting they did not play some beautiful football.
a�?To be honest it was not an easy game for us.
a�?People expect us to play some beautiful football everyday but in football you can still get a positive result even if you are not entertaining,a�? Mapeza said.
a�?We might not have been that impressive but at the end of the day what is important is collecting maximum points.
a�?We could have scored more goals because we had some good chances. It is good we managed to protect our early lead and I am happy with the three points.a�?
FC Platinuma��s high start to the season has already seen them being touted as serious title contenders.
They are seeking their first league title since their maiden PSL season in 2011. a�� Online
