Kaze targets Soweto Derby win to 'buy a month of happiness' from frustrated Chiefs fans

The Glamour Boys' supporters have grown increasingly restless, having initially given the co-coaches the benefit of the doubt after an early promise. Now, trust in those at the helm has worn thin. Ahead of the crucial Soweto Derby, one of Amakhosi coaches has openly stated that a victory would not only secure three points but also help appease their fans.

The PSL big three have all exited the Nedbank Cup, shifting full focus onto the league title race.

The Soweto giants began the campaign on a promising note but have since fallen short in their pursuit of silverware, leaving the league title as their only realistic shot at redemption.

And according to the ex-Chiefs marksman, the revolving door approach in the starting XI has done more harm than good.

The Cape Winelands side and their opponents from Tanzania entered this last group game with their quarter-final hopes having already been extinguished.

It was Amakhosi's maiden participation in the group stage of this continental inter-club competition after successfully navigating through the preliminary round.

The Naturena outfit needed just a draw to reach the knockouts, but a defeat to the White Knight saw Al Masry beat them to the ticket courtesy of a superior goal difference.

Frequently asked questions

What's the cheapest way to watch as much Premier League football a season?

Currently, the most cost efficient package looks to be picking up a TV deal through Virgin Media or EE TV.

Existing TV or broadband customers can add TNT Sports to Virgin Media for £12 per month and Sky Sports for £31.75 per month, adding on Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.

EE TV (formerly BT TV) also provide their Big Sport deal which includes TNT Sports and Sky Sports via NOW TV, for £45 per month, which is available for existing broadband customers, with the addition of Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.

However, when it comes to bang for your buck, if you’re wanting to spend a little less, then the Complete Sky Sports package from an additional £22 per month on top of your current Sky TV deal is the best option, giving you over 128 games across a single season.
