De Sa wants Dikwena to find killer instinct

- ANA SPORTS REPORTER IN JOHANNESBU­RG

PLATINUM Stars coach Roger De Sa wants his team to be more clinical in front of goal when they host Bloemfonte­in Celtic in an Absa Premiershi­p clash at the Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace tonight (kick-off at 7.30pm).

Dikwena have not scored more than one goal in a match this season but De Sa says they have been working hard at finishing during the internatio­nal break.

“It’s not something you get better at after just 10 days. You continuous­ly have to work on it. We have to improve on it. We will keep creating opportunit­ies. As long as we keep creating you have got hope.

“If you stop creating you have bigger worries. It’s good that we have opportunit­ies but we need to improve on that,” said De Sa.

Dikwena were knocked out of the Telkom Knockout by Celtic in a match De Sa feels his men should have won. He is confident that his charges can amass maximum points provided their finishing is on point.

“We should have won that game and now we have a chance to redeem ourselves against the same opponents. If we play the same as we did last time and take our chances, I think that’s all we have to do to win the game.

“Hopefully, we will do that. “Celtic have done exceptiona­lly well. They have reached the final and are definitely a form team. We going hope they are focused on the cup and we can catch them out.”

During the break, De Sa has been working on individual­s to get their game to a desirable level.

“We have got to prepare and hopefully we can get back to our league form, which was three games without a loss.

“Hopefully, we can build on that,” he added. –
