The flyer, a two-goal hero recently when the Urban Warriors beat visitors 4-2 victors in a league match, told The Zimbabwean that a winless streak that had haunted the club since last November had been overturned. “The two winning goals I struck against Free State Stars set the tonic for a survival battle that will see us collect maximum points in most of our remaining games,” said Billiat.

The Urban Warriors were placed third from bottom of the log after 24 matches, two points off Amazulu, who occupied the last spot of safety, at the time of going to print. “We were going through a rough patch for some time, but I never stopped believing that we would turn the tables and start collecting the points that would see us run away from relegation. I am glad this seems to have started. We have always played well, only the goals had not been coming for us.”

The skilful attacker said confidence had been raised in their camp following the win, which preceded a 2-2 draw with defending champions, Orlando Pirates.
