Nabi points out Kaizer Chiefs' problem

In an interview with SABC1 after the game, as per iDiskiTimes, Nabi was glad he led his team to win the title but was not happy about one aspect of the game.

The Tunisian tactician lamented his team's inability to convert their chances and saw it as a big problem.

"It was a very intense game; it was an excellent thing [winning a trophy], but we created many chances," he said on SABC1.

"Just like against Sundowns, we also created a lot of opportunities. This is a big problem [that we're missing chances].

"I want a winning mentality. There are no friendly games. In friendly games, you need a positive attitude and a winning attitude. In exercises and training, I want to win.

"If I lose, it's a problem. I don't sleep. I want this mentality.

"We lost momentum in the game. We gave the other team the chance to gain control, and this is unacceptable.

"Secondly, we play in the cup against SuperSport, and this is an awful repetition. Maybe the SuperSport coach was watching, and if we reach penalties again, I need to change takers."
