The whole week I had been anticipating the Soweto Derby after months of not getting any... as a Chiefs supporter I wanted revenge and eve since I heard that the Orlando Pirates have been having problems with the coach, and after 3-0 defeat from the Cape Town team Santos, I was pretty convinced that Chiefs were going to take the three points fair and square.

I must admit I expected Kaiser Chiefs to win but to my surprise, the first 20 minutes of the first half Pirates dominated and used every little opportunity possible, they first goal was scored by Benny McCarthy, the second goal was scored by Andile Jali and than Benny punished us again with the third goal that the team with black and white kit, and the crowd roared as well as the vuvuzelas were not lost in the game... the Chiefs team looked tired and frustrated.

By then I thought that there was no hope until Simphiwe Shabalala raise all hope with the only goal for the gold and black team in the first half, whooo! My heart was pounding, I thought I was gonna lose it... the first half ended. On the second half Kiazer Chiefs dominated making passes as though they were the last passes and they depended on them, but the Pirates defenders were strong as ever and took no nonsense, than a change happened as soon as the young striker from AmaZulu Lehlohonollo Majoro scored the second one for Amakhosi... all hope was raised but still needed two more to beat the opposition.

I must admit though that I was really disappointed but the second goal consoled me, I’d rather have one goal missing than are two goals behind. Well played boys, even though some players were not up to scratch but yo’ll played your hearts out!
