Chiefs’ good form continues

Kaizer Chiefs' resurgence continues. Last night they outplayed and beat Bloemfontein Celtic 2-0 confirming their place in next season's Top Eight Competition.

A run down the left flank followed by a clinical pass from Simphiwe Tshabalala enabled Chiefs to open the score in the 43rd minute with a clinical shot from Arthur Zwane.

A second goal from Mabhuti Khenyeza in the 67th minute virtually assured Chiefs of victory as he dribbled past Celtic goalkeeper Shuaib Walters and calmly slotted the ball into an empty net.

Celtic came close to scoring on several occasions in the final 15 minutes, but some spectacular goalkeeping from Itumeleng Khune kept them at bay as Chiefs went on to win.

Like Chiefs, nevertheless, Celtic are already looking towards next season for better things and owner Jimmy Augusti promised after the game that there would be something of a major upheaval in all departments in order to dispense with "dead wood."
