Coach Morgan Mammila felt Chippa United were the dominant side for most of the game against Kaizer Chiefs.
The two sides played to a goalless draw in their opening DStv Premiership encounter at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

The Chilli Boys tactician says his charges managed to match the Soweto giants pound for pound for 80 minutes.
"Ja, pound for pound you could see, first 45 minutes not even one shot on target (for) Kaizer Chiefs, (we) dominated first half, created clearer chances. To be honest we should have won this match," Mammila told SuperSport after the match.
"I only saw Kaizer Chiefs the last ten minutes. The whole 80 minutes it was all Chippa United creating chances left and right.
"I'll take this performance with both hands, credit to the boys, credit to the technical team and actually even to the board and actually to the Chairman of the team. If this team is going to play like this, I'm telling you one will get a hiding one day."
Mammila also praised loan signing Goodman Mosele, who was named Man of the Match on debut.
"It looks good because you could see new players came in but you could see Mosele he only trained with us for a week but I've worked with Mosele, he knows how Chippa plays," he continued.
"Because I sat down with him and showed him how we play because I know his strong points. But credit to all the players, they gave their all. But I don't know why we didn't hit the back of the net but we'll go back to the drawing board, prepare for the next match and we hope it must be a win that one. We don't need anything, we need just maximum three points," he concluded.
