Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze has warned his players against complacency despite extending their winning streak to four matches with a convincing 2-0 victory over TS Galaxy.
Amakhosi delivered a composed performance at FNB Stadium on Sunday, controlling key phases of the match while remaining solid at the back.
Galaxy struggled to break down a disciplined Chiefs defence, with Lilepo sealing the result late on after capitalising on a goalkeeping error.
The result marks a remarkable turnaround for Chiefs, who have bounced back strongly after a difficult spell earlier in the season.
Wins over Durban City, Magesi, Orbit College and now Galaxy have reignited their campaign and strengthened their push for a top-three finish.
But Kaze insists the job is far from done.
“We need to keep pressure — in training, in recovery, in everything we do,” he said. “We can’t relax. We have to improve every day and stay focused in every session.”
The coach also highlighted the return of key players from injury as a major boost, with increased competition raising standards across the squad.
“Having players like Khanhyisa Mayo, Ox Mthethwa, Ethan Chisslet, Given Msimango and Bradley Cross back gives us more options. It makes the team stronger in every way,” he added.
Chiefs’ growing depth was evident, with Ethan Chislett among those making an impact off the bench.
With momentum firmly on their side, Amakhosi have now opened a gap over chasing teams and are well-positioned in the race for CAF Confederation Cup qualification.
However, Kaze’s message is clear: consistency, not comfort, will define their season.
