Kaizer Chiefs responded in impressive fashion after Sunday’s cup disappointment against Golden Arrows, securing a 2–0 victory over Sekhukhune United at a chilly FNB Stadium this evening.

The Fernando da Cruz-led Amakhosi showed character and determination, putting their cup exit behind them to deliver a composed performance against the Limpopo outfit.

Luke Baartman opened the scoring for Chiefs before the highly rated Mduduzi Tshabalala doubled the advantage, sealing a crucial three points for the Phefeni Glamour.

The victory takes Kaizer Chiefs back to the top of the league standings with six points, giving the club renewed momentum ahead of a major challenge.

Amakhosi will now turn their attention to Mamelodi Sundowns, with the two sides set to meet at FNB Stadium this coming Saturday.
