PSL
Neeskens expects tight finish
2012-04-19 15:46
Johannesburg - Mamelodi Sundowns coach Johan Neeskens has predicted that the race for the PSL title will go down to the wire this season.
The Brazilians lost 2-1 against Platinum Stars on Wednesday and
are one point behind league leaders Orlando Pirates, who drew with
Moroka Swallows.
Considering the inconsistent form of the top clubs, even
sixth-placed Free State Stars - who are eight points off the pace -
still have a realistic shot at the title, and Neeskens believes it will
go down to the last game of the campaign.
"All the teams have five games to go now [Kaizer Chiefs have a
game in hand in fifth place] and I believe nobody, from the chasing
teams, will win all five games," the Dutchman said.
"In fact, I believe that it's going to be the last game of the season that will be the decider."
He added: "We are still in it as long as we are among the top teams in the league.
"We are not feeling any pressure whatsoever."
