In an interview with SuperSport TV, the Tunisian mentor claimed that Matlou and Zwane were the best players in the match.
"I think, to be honest with you, our younger players perform very well; our best players are our younger players," he said.
"The problem is we must protect them because there is a lot of pressure. Zwane, we discussed a lot with him during training; sometimes, we are angry, as if he is our son. In this game, he got his chance, and he did well.
"I think he and George Matlou were two of the best players in this game. Also, Matlou, you know he was one year without a game. He came back step by step. We have to protect our players.
"Congratulations to them, all the players, the professionals, and the young ones. Congratulations to them."
