Some of the supporters had this to say after the game: “I’m so happy, congratulations to the Bokke. We have been backing them since the beginning. We [are] just glad we made it through and it was a tough one. I think [we’ve] got improvements we need to work on, but otherwise go Bokke.”
“Discipline from the guys, I mean if we were to focus … we have been trailing from the very first minute. And it became worse, we received a yellow card we were short one man. But like I said, discipline from the boys. We didn’t concede. We came back, we re-grouped and managed to capitalise and win the game.”
