Head coach Molefi Ntseki hailed a wonder-strike by Pule Mmodi alongside the impact of substitute Christian Saile as Kaizer Chiefs secured a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Stellenbosch FC in a DStv Premiership clash at Athlone Stadium on Wednesday.
Mmodi scored a sensational long-range effort in the 52nd minute before the energetic Saile grabbed a second to top off an impactful display from the substitutes bench.

Wednesday's win sees Chiefs record consecutive victories as Ntseki aims to get their campaign back on track after a difficult start to the 2023/24 season.
"I think the most important thing is the drills and the work we've put into our offensive players," Ntseki said post-match.
"They understand the demands, they understand the movements and they understand what technical execution we have to make in terms of getting goals.
"I think it was a very good decision for him [Pule Mmodi] to execute and be able to score that goal."
Ntseki was also full of praise for Saile who is emerging as a dangerous option in front of goal and a weapon off the bench.
"As for Christian, he is a very vibrant type of player who is always looking to score, that is why when he scored he came to the bench to celebrate," Ntseki added.
"I think he's a goalscorer and any striker if he scores goals, that's what makes him feel good about himself.
"I think that's what Ashley [du Preez] did last week and what Christian did today. That's what Mmodi did last week.
