Kaizer Chiefs 1-0 ZESCO United: 'Once Glody Lilepo scores, no other Glamour Boys player will! We want to beat teams with 1-nil scoreline until Sipho Mbule scores for Orlando Pirates; I was angry Lebohang Maboe almost scored' - Fans

After they started the group stage campaign with a loss, Amakhosi managed back-to-back victories, massively boosting their chances of reaching the knockout stage. The Glamour Boys completed a double over their continental rivals from Zambia after their last victory in Ndola. For Zega Mambo, the struggle continues as they remain winless, pointless and rooted at the bottom of the group.

Kaizer Chiefs collected six points from ZESCO United after a CAF Confederation Cup group stage match at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Sunday.

The Glamour Boys recorded a 1-0 victory in their first meeting on January 25 and completed the double following a victory of a similar scoreline at home.

Amakhosi broke the deadlock in the 14th minute when Glody Lilepo struck past ZESCO United goalkeeper, Levis Opiyo. 

After a miscommunication in the defence, the former AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia goalkeeper was exposed and had little chance of saving his team from going down.

The former Zambian Premier League champions were unable to find a goal that would have at least denied Chiefs a win. The loss left them rooted at the bottom as Amakhosi moved to second place, but Group D's landscape might change as Zamalek and Al Masry are expected to meet later at night.

After the match, GOAL takes a look at how fans reacted following Chiefs' win.

    Reminder of Baxter era

    This Chiefs reminds me of one of Baxter's that won the league; they didn't play fancy and score many goals but scored one and had a fantastic defense - Yanga Mhlontlo

    Warning to Chiefs

    We can't keep riding our luck on these solitary goal wins... eventually it will run out. We must learn to be sharp in the last third and make better decisions in order to create more goal-scoring opportunities - The Musician
