Man of the Match Keagan Dolly says it was 'easy' coming into the Kaizer Chiefs set up with a number of familiar faces.

The 28-year-old impressed on his full debut for the Soweto giants, who claimed a 2-1 victory over Baroka FC on Wednesday evening.

The former Montpellier attacker reveals the he did not feel like the new kid at Chiefs having previously worked with some of the players and Baxter at Bafana Bafana.

"Firstly I want to thank everyone who helped me through my journey. When I got back, I was a bit unfit and my teammates and the technical staff really helped me a lot in coming back to full fitness," Dolly told SuperSport TV.

"Even though I'm not there yet, the boys made it easy for me. Tonight, you could see we are working hard off the field and it showed in patches, especially in the first half. We stuck to our basics and we kept it simple and we kept moving.

"I think in certain patches we forgot the basics and started panicking. But I think we should be proud of ourselves. We got the three points and we created opportunities that we could have scored more goals from.

"There's a lot to take from this game. The season is still long. We just need to stick to the process.

"Like I said it was easy to come back into the team. There are a lot of people I've worked with in the past. In Bafana and previous teams. I didn't feel like I was a new boy coming into a new team. I slotted right in and that made it easy for me and it shows on the field."
