SuperSport United coach Gavin Hunt has praised his midfielder Grant Margeman for his work in the middle of the park.
The stocky midfielder scored the winner for Matsatsantsa in their 2-1 win over Stellenbosch FC 2-1 at the Danie Craven Stadium in Cape Town.
SuperSport United came from a goal behind to claim all three points and move second in the DStv Premiership table. Gavin Hunt’s side are five points behind Mamelodi Sundowns but have a game in hand over their Tshwane rivals.

Hunt gets SuperSport United to a flying start
Margeman completed a permanent move away from Mamelodi Sundowns ahead of the current season and so far, has been one of the best-performing midfielders in the league. His coach Gavin Hunt said Margeman can get better if he just need to be more consistent.
“Ja [it’s an instruction from me], he’s got that in his make-up but he doesn’t do it enough, I think he’s got so much speed over 10, 15 metres he can play combinations,” Hunt said.

“We don’t play with defensive midfield players and attacking midfield players, I don’t believe in that – so we need to understand the moments of the game.
“And he’s good in those moments, he can give us more, but the games he’s played here, he’s been good for us – long may it continue but yes, it’s an instruction from me,” Hunt added.
