"I am very proud of my players. This group is doing things that are very difficult," he said on SuperSport TV.

"It is a marathon that we are running, and I said to the players, the result belongs to anybody; you can't win them all. Just because you won 11 in a row doesn't mean you won everything. What you're owing is the process to try to win it."

The South African tactician went further to explain the reason why his team dropped points against the home side.

"When I look at the indicators – how many chances for Cape Town City? I am not so sure they had too many chances. Did we create chances? I think so. Maybe not as best as we possibly can, and then we also made a couple of mistakes in the final third," he added.

"So I am happy with the process. We tried to win the game, but the result belongs to anybody."
