‘Sirino and Nabi are cooking’ Kaizer Chiefs are BACK!
Kaizer Chiefs opened their Betway Premiership with a 2-1 win over Marumo Gallants on Saturday evening.
Sekela Sithole opened the scoring in the eighth minute before Amakhosi equalised nine minutes later through Mduduzi Chabalala. Both teams pushed for the lead in the first half but poor finishing let them down.
The game turned on his head when Joseph Malogoane fouled Wandisile Duba late in the second half. The former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder was given a straight red giving Amakhosi the advantage.
A few minutes later, Duba’s square ball found Mfundo Vilakazi who gave Nasreddine Nabi’s men the lead. Amakhosi managed the game to claim their first league win of the season. Chiefs fans took to social media to praise Nabi’s impact at the club.
Kaizer Chiefs off to a winning start
New signing Bradley Cross was voted Man of the Match after a solid showing at left-back. Gaston Sirino, on his debut, was also praised for his impact he made at the Free State Stadium on Saturday.
