MILFORD FC chairman and coach Dr Xanti Pupuma was nonchalance personified following their progression to the Nedbank Cup semifinal, courtesy of a 3-2 shootout victory over Sekhukhune United on Saturday night.
The game had ended 2-2 after extra time.Granted, he had spent so much time celebrating with his team that he arrived late for the post-match media conference, which he claimed to know nothing about. But that delight had faded by the time he addressed the newshounds, with Pupuma refusing to be goaded into looking too far ahead at the gains the victory brings.
Now through to the penultimate stage of the country’s premier club knockout competition — the draw for which will be conducted this evening - Pupuma remained focused on the main objective of getting Milford promoted into the elite league.
