Flames striker, Gabadinho Mhango, has thanked his Bidvest Wits teammates for helping him to win the Man-of-the-Match award in Saturday\u2019s Telkom Knock-Out final win over Bloemfontein Celtic.
\nGaba received the individual accolade after a tireless display in the 1-0 victory over his former side.
\nThe former Nyasa Big Bullets wonderkid was making his return from a six-match suspension for spitting at AmaZulu midfielder Michael Morton in September.
\nGaba was quoted by Supersport.com as saying: \u201cFirst of all, I want to thank God and my teammates. I was suspended for six games and for me to come back and be Man-of-the-Match, I couldn\u2019t have done it without the help of my teammates. As players, it is good to win trophies; so maybe this cup will give us confidence (in the league).\u201d
\nIn reference to the team\u2019s poor form in South Africa\u2019s Absa Premier Soccer League, Gaba said the cup win will motivate the team and it would come out fighting.
\nThe Clever Boys are currently 16th in the league after 11 games but would have the chance to move out of the drop zone when they face Ajax Cape Town this evening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
