According to iDiski Times, the 27-year-old said he was delighted by his performance and said his hat-trick celebration was to announce that he had arrived on the scene.
Mabasa said:
"It’s just for people to know that I’m back home. And I’m here to score goals, and that is exactly what I want to do. I’m happy and just very happy for the goals, happy for the team performance, and definitely we need to improve and get the results, and we’ve been doing that, so I’m just happy for that and grateful for that.”
