Stellenbosch coach Steve Barker says there are still improvements to come from his side after their 3-1 victory over Royal AM at the weekend.
Barker’s side started their DStv Premiership campaign with an impressive 1-0 win over Orlando Pirates.
They then went down 1-0 to newly-promoted Polokwane City but defeated SuperSport United 1-0 in their MTN8 quarter-final clash, before dismantling Royal AM on Friday.
Up next for Stellies is a league clash with SuperSport on Saturday and Barker explained he was pleased with his team’s most recent performance.
He told the club’s website: “It’s nice when your game plan comes to fruition. We planned well for the game and had our tactics in place.
“It’s never easy to play Royal AM, traditionally away in Durban they are a tough team to play against so we have to be happy with our performance and with the result.”
Barker added: “There are still aspects where we can improve, like when we were 3-1 up I thought we gave the ball away softly at times. You don’t want it to go to 3-2 with five or ten minutes remaining because that can change the complexion of the game.
“So, there are one or two things that we need to get better at but overall, considering it was our third away game of the week, to have come away with a win in the MTN8 and a win away to Royal AM, is good for us.”
