Marumo Gallants beat Kaizer Chiefs 2-0 in a set of pre-season friendly games on Saturday afternoon.
Gallants in three set of 45-minute games beat Chiefs 2-0 in the second set after goals from Maboke Matlakala and Lucky Mohomi as both sets of sides managed to put their players through their paces.
In the clash at Peter Mokaba Stadium, new head coaches Romain Folz and Arthur Zwane has the opportunity to experiment with their squads in a variety of tactical set-ups and gain valuable minutes to build their respective squad of players as they build their match fitness.
Both coaches arrive with expectations going into the new season with Zwane being entrusted to awaken the giants of Amakhosi, that have gone trophyless for the last six seasons.
Whle the 31-year-old Folz steps into the place of former coach Dan Melesela, who led the club to the Nedbank Cup finals last season, which qualified them for the CAF Confederation Cup.
Bahlabane Ba Ntwa made the bold call of luring the Frenchman to the DStv Premiership from Botswana giants Township Rollers and their outing against the Soweto giants would have been a welcome boost to the squads’ confidence which is set to undergo a similar transition as Chiefs with seven signings already made by Zwane and co.
