HISTORY AND FORM MEAN NOTHING IN THE DERBY – ARTHUR ZWANE
“You know football, you cannot rely more on what you have done in the past.” Kaizer Chiefs coach Arthur Zwane said as quoted by Citizen.
“Yes, we have won those games. It talks to the preparations, we got them right.
“The Pirates coach (Jose Riveiro) said that this time around, this will be a different Orlando Pirates team. But only time will tell.
“Pirates are doing well, and we will be coming into this game as underdogs. But Kaizer Chiefs will go to FNB Stadium with one thing on our mind, to go there and give our best and be victorious.
“We have been blowing hot and cold this season, and the players know what is expected of them.”
Junior Khanye has explained how Orlando Pirates FC will beat Kaizer Chiefs FC today.
Junior Khanye: “They beat Sundowns 3-0, why can’t they beat Kaizer Chiefs?”
Junior Khanye believes Orlando Pirates and Stellenbosch FC will be victorious in this weekend’s Nedbank Cup semi-finals and that Stellenbosch FC will end up lifting the trophy.
“I don’t think they’ve got a team that can compete [at this level], especially with trophies on the line and where there is pressure. Psychologically, I don’t think the team is strong enough.” he told idiski tv
“Pirates have got the players, they’ve got the mental strengths, but Jose Riveiro still needs to prove himself in the derby,” he explained.
“But Pirates have experienced players to win this game and they also got the goalkeeper now. Their downfall was the keeper.
“In the derbies they’ve lost, it was down to the goalkeeper, but Chaine makes a huge difference. He can read situations, he can play with his feet, he is very comfortable in terms of ball-handling.
“So Pirates have got a very strong team now and they are winning, they are on good form. In terms of quality of the players, they are number two behind Mamelodi Sundowns.
“They beat Sundowns 3-0, why can’t they beat Kaizer Chiefs?”
