The Buffalo City Metro (BCM) is ready to host yet another Chippa United match in their continuing partnership with the Chilli Boyz.

At the end of last season, Leonardo Castro looked sent to be one of the players who were going to be off loaded at Kaizer Chiefs as they looked to build a new attack for the 2019/2020 season.

Da Gama started with a promising attack of Tendai Ndoro, Rodney Ramagalela and Peter Shalulile upfront last night but there was little delivery from them.

During his playing days, Da Gama starred as a striker at Moroka Swallows and Dynamos and that’s where he also got to play against Chiefs and scored some goals against them.

Following last night’s result, Da Gama blamed lack of depth in his squad for contributing to this loss as he was missing some of his regular players.

With Chiefs celebrating their 50th anniversary as from Tuesday, the club released free tickets to their supporters as part of the celebrations and there were over 54 000 fans at the match venue last night.

Highlands Park head Coach Owen Da Gama says it will be good to see a big institution like Kaizer Chiefs lifting the Absa Premiership title come end of the season.

Supersport United Coach Kaitano Tembo has explained the absence of assistant Coach Nico Labohm in their 2-2 draw against Maritzburg United in Atteridgeville last night.

After back-to-back home defeats in the Absa Premiership, Stellenbosch FC will be looking for a positive result when they travel to Makhulong Stadium to take on Highlands Park on Saturday afternoon.

The last time Chiefs lifted the league league title, Tshabalala was one of the star players back in 2015, this also happens to be the last time they touched some silverware.

Tshabalala says he’s used this time away from football to focus on his family and his businesses.

It’s been more than seven months now that Shabba has been without a team and he says he’s almost ready to return.

Tshabalala spent a season in Turkey after leaving Chiefs in 2018, it was always his dream to play overseas especially after the 2010 FIFA World Cup where he scored a spectacular opening goal against Mexico.

As Kaizer Chiefs celebrated their 50th anniversary over the past two days, football fans could be forgiven for having thought for a moment that Bafana Bafana legendary player Siphiwe Tshabalala has retired from football.

Malan says a lot of credit must go to Cobras Coach Ashwell Prince.

One of the things noticeable about Malan’s game is how aware he is of where his off stump is when leaving balls, and he says this something that has come later in his game.

Malan says that playing for his country is a privilege, and it was an amazing experience playing against England at Newlands.

The Nelspruit-born batsman says that while it has been a long road to get this chance, it was worth it.

While South Africa may have lost the second test at Newlands to England, one of the positives that came from the game was the debut of opening batsman Pieter Malan.

Black Leopards head coach Cavin Johnson says not everything was bad during last night’s heart breaking 2-1 league loss to Chippa United.

Reflecting on Wednesday’s game against Amazulu, Mkhize says it was one of those draws that felt like a loss.

Mkhize says that Chiefs have shown this season they are tough to beat, so they need to make sure they take any chances that come their way on Sunday.

After a disappointing 2-2 draw against Amazulu last night, Cape Town City face a daunting task when they travel to the FNB Stadium to take on log leaders Kaizer Chiefs on Sunday afternoon.

The win leaves Baroka rock bottom having now gone five games without a win. They lost three times and drew twice.

Komphela admitted that his team had been battling with fatigue over the last few weeks due to a packed schedule.
