Phili speaks on his Kaizer Chiefs move

21-year-old winger Langelihle Phili is pumped about his recent move from Stellenbosch to Kaizer Chiefs.

“Everyone at home supports Amakhosi, so I thought it would be a good move for me to join the team I grew up supporting and being here feels like my dream has really come true.”

Wandile Duba came off the bench to score a brace and help the Glamour Boys to a 3-1 win. The performance has fans enthused about the team’s playing style under new boss Fernando Da Cruz.

Against Kruger United on matchday 1 of the new season, some surprise names made starts. Among those were Ethan Chislett in the number 10 position and Luke Baartman wide in attack. Chiefs beat the newcomers 3-1. Vilakazi claimed an assist, so he can expect to keep his place for the MTN8 clash against Golden Arrows.
