"I am impressed with the players’ commitment and hard work in getting this victory, which sets us up well to push for the title.”"When I took charge three months ago, the team was struggling near the bottom but the way the players have responded to my way of doing things is amazing. "The players have really worked twice each day to be where we are, we’re all pulling in the same direction, which can only be good for the team as we seek to win the league. This club deserves to win the league after so many years without success.” They have nine more games to play, the Frenchman stated.Rayon capitalised on Police’s 0-0 draw with Mukura toleapfrog them by one point. Amissi’s hat trick took his tally to six goals in three matches since he signed for Rayon last month.
