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.”
Are Kaizer Chiefs legit title contenders?
Three points from a possible three. Suddenly, Fernando da Cruz is Pep Guardiola and Flavio Silva is Erling Haaland. Opinions change quickly in football, which is why they say 24 hours is a long time in this sport. Silva scored the opener in Chiefs’ 3-1 win over Kruger United. 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.
What’s next?
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.
