With Amakhosi’s chances of winning the league title fading quickly, Masilela says they still need to fight to finish in the top three to book a spot in the Caf Confederation Cup.
Chiefs are currently fourth on the league table with 49 points, Amakhosi look out of the league title race, but they still have a mathjematical chance of winning depending on how the teams above them fare in the race.
“It’s not difficult to stay motivated. If you don’t finish No 1, then you can finish in position two and qualify for the Champions League,” Masilela said,
“If you finish third, you still qualify to play in Africa [Confed Cup]. So we are still motivated. There’s everything to play for.”
Steve Komphela will lead his side into their league clash with Golden Arrows at the FNB Stadium on Saturday night.
