Kaizer Chiefs coach Ernst Middendorp has denied ever getting carried away after watching their closest Premier Soccer League (PSL) title challengers Mamelodi Sundowns being beaten on Monday, before Amakhosi also tasted defeat on Wednesday.
Leaders Chiefs blew up an opportunity to open a nine-point gap at the top of the standings after they were beaten 3-1 by Bloemfontein Celtic, following Sundowns' 3-2 loss to Cape Town City on Monday.
Chiefs went into the Bloemfontein match appearing overexcited at the prospect of extending their lead, but Middendorp dismisses the notion that complacency crept into their camp.
