Kaizer Chiefs’ draw with Marumo Gallants on the weekend was a setback in their bid to finish as runners-up in this season’s DStv Premiership, another defensive calamity hampering Arthur Zwane’s side.
In this week’s Ballz to the Wall Podcast, Phakaaathi editor Jonty Mark, along with football writers Sibongiseni Gumbi and Tshepo Ntsoelengoe, take a look at Chiefs’ defensive situation, with a particular focus on whether the Naturena-based side need to look for a new goalkeeper.
Brandon Petersen was part of the fiasco against Gallants, and with Itumeleng Khune starting to show his age, and Bruce Bvuma apparently out of favour, Amakhosi might just go and find themselves a new number one when the season ends.
Orlando Pirates seized back the advantage in the race for second, meanwhile, with a 2-0 win at Chippa United, taking it back from SuperSport United, who had beaten TS Galaxy by the same scoreline on Friday night.
Consistency
The Phakaaathi team also takes a look at the Buccaneers, who are starting to show consistency under Jose Riveiro, and ask whether SuperSport can also last the distance in the race for the Caf Champions League.
We also look ahead to this weekend’s Nedbank Cup matches, with Chiefs, Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns all in action in the quarterfinals.
