DStv Premiership Report: Golden Arrows v Kaizer Chiefs 27 April 2022 (Soccer Laduma)

Interim coach Arthur Zwane made two alterations from Chiefs' loss to Stellenbosch over the weekend, with Reeve Frosler and Nkosingiphile Nhlakanipho Ngcobo ...

Nkosingiphile Ngcobo, 10. Njabulo Ngcobo, 45. However, Arrows got the winning goal with four minutes left on the clock as Michael Gumede got his sixth goal of the season by nodding Nduduzo Sibiya's free-kick at the near post to hand Chiefs a third straight loss and keep their top eight hopes alive. The AmaKhosi carried the momentum into the second half as they went in search of a second goal, with Keagan Dolly and Billiat combining well in the opening 10 minutes. Chiefs eventually threw on Samir Nurkovic for the final 18 minutes as he replaced Castro while Njabulo Ngcobo's afternoon also came to an end after being replaced by Daniel Cardoso. Chiefs interim coaches then opted for a double change on 57 minutes as Ramahlwe Mphahlele and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo were replaced by Kearyn Baccus and Dumisani Zuma. The home side, meanwhile, struggled to get their foot on the ball in the first half and were quite wasteful whenever they did manage to get the ball off the Soweto giants at times. Arrows coaching duo of Vusumuzi Vilakazi and Mabuthi Khenyeza were not happy with what was on display and reacted by making a change 11 minutes before the break as Sbonelo Cele made way for Siboniso Conco. The Soweto giants were eager to bounce back from the loss to Stellenbosch but they had to wait until the 17th minute for the opening goal, as a swift counter-attack ended with Leonardo Castro slipping in Khama Billiat who volleyed past Sifiso Mlungwana. The changed had no immediate effect as Chiefs shot-stopper Brandon Petersen was largely untested in the opening 45 minutes, although the visitors unable to carve out another opening at the other end despite enjoying more of the possession. Chiefs are planning to reduce the average age of the squad, are these players safe? Kaizer Chiefs slipped to a third straight loss in the DStv Premiership after going down 2-1 to Golden Arrows on Wednesday afternoon.

Kaizer Chiefs vs Golden Arrows starting XI: Nurkovic and Parker ... (Goal.com)

Kaizer Chiefs' starting XI to face Golden Arrows for a Premier Soccer League game in KwaZulu-Natal has been named.

Dolly is under pressure to find his scoring touch and be the club’s top goalscorer in the PSL – the Bafana Bafana star has seven goals and four assists – so expectations for a better performance are high. Cole is a consistent first-teamer for the Glamour Boys and makes another start in deep midfield. He has been the preferred candidate for the goalkeeping position in recent games, and his sole priority should be to help Amakhosi keep a clean sheet after failing to do so in the last two games.
