FootballKennedy Musonda Brilliantly Chips Itumeleng Khune As Yanga Beat Chiefs, Video
- Kaizer Chiefs were defeated in their first pre-season game as they were beaten by Young Africans
- Yanga's Kennedy Musonda scored the only goal of the game late in the first half of their friendly
- Molefi Ntseki gave some of the Amakhosi's new signings a chance to feature for the side against Yanga
Molefi Ntseki’s first game in charge of Kaizer Chiefs has ended in defeat.
The Amakhosi took on Young Africans SC in a pre-season friendly in Dar es Salaam but were beaten 1-0 by the Tanzanian side.
Kennedy Musonda scored the game’s only goal late in the first half, and what a beauty it was.
Musonda found himself in acres of space at the edge of the Chiefs’ box and brilliantly chipped an onrushing Itumeleng Khune.
Chiefs appealed for offside, believing that Musonda set off early, but the goal stood, and it was all Yanga needed to win.
While the defeat came in Ntseki’s first game in charge of the Soweto-based side, it also allowed him to experiment with his squad and give the new signings a game.
As noted by Times LIVE, Chiefs were without Keagan Dolly, Ashley Du Preez, Wandile Duba and new signing Ranga Chivaviro through injury concerns, but six of their new recruits did get a chance to play.
