Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Khalil Ben Youssef has explained that they tweaked their midfield operation to counter the threat of Orlando Pirates duo Relebohile Mofokeng and Oswin Appollis.
Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Khalil Ben Youssef says the scuffle that preceded Sunday’s Soweto Derby against Orlando Pirates has embarrassed South African football on the global stage.
Orlando Pirates were held to a 1-1 draw by Kaizer Chiefs in a tightly contested Soweto Derby at FNB Stadium on Sunday, missing the chance to strengthen their position at the top of the Betway Premiership.
Not even a long injury layoff has affected the confidence of Kaizer Chiefs centre-back Given Msimango, as he has returned to full fitness and found his way back to the starting line-up to overcome the challenges he had from the first half of the season.
Kaizer Chiefs captain and number one goalkeeper Brandon Petersen says the stakes are high going into tomorrow’s Soweto Derby and believes that this could be the most competitive clash against Orlando Pirates in the Betway Premiership in a very long time.
Former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder George Maluleka believes the current Amakhosi dressing room is lacking senior leadership.
