Kaizer Chiefs head coach Molefi Ntseki says the 3-0 win over AmaZulu has 'calmed the storm' after last week's disappointing result.
Chiefs won their league game this season after Mmodi scored in either half while the other goal was scored by Edson Castillo in the dying minutes.
Ntseki says he's very happy with the maximum points, as it helped ease the pressure.

"I think it was important, I must say well done to the boys, I think they put a good shift. I think the organization, the structure was very much intact," Ntseki told SuperSport TV.
"We needed to get maximum points today because of where we come from and I think this has really helped the club, this has really helped individuals and the team as a whole to calm down the storm.
"And in calming down the storm, we're listening to our footsteps and it means tactically we have to go back and improve in areas that we need to improve on," he said.
Mmodi opened the scoring for Amakhosi as early as the fourth minute and Ntseki emphasized the importance of them scoring early and thanked the former Golden Arrows forward for scoring a brace.

"It was a very important one because last week we conceded from a critical phase, so even today we were saying lets catch them early, so that we can settle, we can manage the game.
"And I think the shift that the boys had to put today it was good for them to get an early goal and I think AmaZulu had the better part of possession but they had possession in areas that we wanted them to be.
"And I think with Pule scoring the goals, it's good for him. I think he's been through a lot and for the club and players as a whole, we're saying thank you," he said.
The former Bafana Bafana coach went on and explained that scoring three goals has boosted the confidence of the players and the mood in the camp.
"What was important for us was to grind the result, good performance will always give you good results and I think today we played the game with goals. In the past few games we were not scoring goals and I think the most important thing today was to score the goals," he said.
"I think in us scoring the goals the mood is good in the camp, the confidence is back with the boys and we're looking forward to the next game, which will be a very important game for us," he added.
