Erasmus and Saleng combined to good effect early in the game, with the Spaniard now looking for a consistent line-up.

"We have a lot of talented players, when they have the chance also to play more minutes together, when we're not forced to make substitutions every game and we can repeat the starting eleven," Riveiro told SuperSport after the game.

"Obviously the interactions between the players improves, they know each other better, they start to understand each other better the body language, non-verbal communication and those associations between talented players are just coming.
