AmaZulu’s Arthur Zwane was relieved to see his team register their first away win in the Betway Premiership this season with a 3-0 win over Chippa United, who were struggling at Buffalo. City Stadium in East London.A brace of goals by Hendrick Mqokolo and Athini Ekstein were enough for Usuthu, to win their first away game, and to pile more misery onto the bottom-placed Chippa. Zwane was pleased that they achieved their goal to end the poor record away from home.“We came here with one thing in mind. We needed to change things in terms of us going away, we’ve been bad travelers,” Zwane Stated.“This is our first game winning away from home. We’ve had opportunities in the past. We actually had about three [opportunities before this one against Kaizer Chiefs, Sekhukhune and Magesi, where we scored first but allowed the opposition to come back and equalise.“So, we came into this game wanting to make sure that we score first, [and] make sure that we don’t concede. I think we started very slow. In the space of 10 minutes, we could have conceded two goals, but that was a wake-up call for us and we started raising our game.”Usuthu are looking to improve on this when they face Polokwane City Zwane, despite winning 3-0 against Rise and Shine, highlighted some areas that he believes they need to improve on before the match.“We still have a long way to go. We are still a work in progress. We will take one game at a time. We don’t want to think about other things right now. We have another game on Tuesday and we need to make sure we are ready,” He said.“We defended better, but we could have done better in some areas of decision making in the middle of the park, trying to connect with our 10s as early as possible to create more scoring opportunities.”Sowetan
