00:00As the opening weekend's headline fixture gets underway

00:05and you can really sense the anticipation here

00:09especially amongst Chiefs fans

00:11who have just been pining for an upturn in fortune

00:14over the last few years

00:16Oh, look at this, early mistake from Marumo Gallance

00:18Rangetsu Nobiru, the former Gallance man

00:21who had such a successful season with them

00:23Made 119 league appearances for Zinedine

00:28Kabaddi to Ma'aunga, flung to the ground

00:30and how feisty and fiery he can get

00:33Now they've taken the free kick quickly

00:35This is looking good

00:36Malanguani rolls it back across

00:38The deflected effort is in

00:40How about that from Marumo Gallance?

00:42A sustained spell of pressure has yielded the goal

00:51Well scored by Chris Zitone

00:55Who had only ever featured in one season in the top flight

01:01has spent the bulk of his time

01:04Look at the impact he has here

01:06against one of the biggest teams in the land

01:08You see, the trick to that was the early start

01:11catching Chiefs flat-footed

01:13and good play

01:15I think Malanguani is the one that delivers the cross

01:18into the box

01:20and that is where I think Chiefs lost the plot

01:23by not being alert and ready to defend

01:25when the start happened

01:27Was it deflected? Did it deflect from the defender?

01:29Now was it heading on target from Zitone

01:31before it took that touch of Ignacio Miguel?

01:36It was indeed, I think it was on target

01:38without a doubt

01:41As Mamelodi sundowns 3-0

01:43Those are their last four opening day results

01:47In fact, that Highlands Park win

01:49is their only win in their last nine openers

01:51There's Chivaviro turns

01:53Many in the stadium thought that had gone in

01:55as it rippled the side netting

02:00Only thing, it's a great turn

02:02Maybe the first touch wasn't the best

02:04but he was able to redeem himself

02:06by clearing himself away from the defender

02:08and opened himself a space for a shot

02:10Moved to Morocco, but now he finds himself

02:12with the Glamour Boys

02:14but trailing in his first competitive match

02:18Gaston Serrino, again towards the back post

02:20There's Merpacross!

02:22That's a wonderful save

02:24by Washington Arubi

02:26who turned 39 years old last week

02:28Unbelievable

02:30I mean from such a close range

02:32almost zero reaction time

02:34but very alert to the danger

02:36It's another great header

02:38by Kroos this time

02:40who jumps the highest

02:42finds the target

02:44but unbelievable save from Arubi

02:46Fantastic leap from Kroos to beat

02:48Manaka in the air

02:50Merpacross would have loved to score

02:52on debut

02:54Gaston Serrino now with the outswinging delivery

02:56It's totally one of a few

02:58Get back to that as

03:00Gaston Serrino's ball is met

03:02by Kroos

03:04who turned it back into

03:06the danger area

03:08then Strobin

03:10vocalizes his discontent

03:12with how easy that was for Chiefs

03:14Did he get a touch though from that shot

03:16because it ends up being a corner

03:18What does that mean?

03:20Does it get up or it came from the defender?

03:22Who

03:24spent

03:26a good year or two

03:28at Supersport United not playing

03:30now to do the Shabbalala

03:32ball

03:34hits the crossbar and down over the line

03:36What a gorgeous goal

03:38from the young man who Naby has put so much faith in

03:40and he has Kaiser

03:42Chiefs back on terms

03:46Shabbalala just stepped it over the goalkeeper

03:48and immediately set it forward

03:50It's a poor kick from the goalkeeper initially

03:52and then it's a long kick

03:54from Kroos if I'm not mistaken

03:56but once again Shabbalala

03:58takes the opportunity to play

04:00apply a little bit of pressure to Mattiani

04:02the ball bounced in his favor

04:04in fact it's Riccotto that tried to clear the ball

04:06bounced off the upright into the back of the net

04:08under a bit of pressure

04:10from Aroubi

04:12very composed is Shabbalala

04:14excellent start

04:16to these young men

04:18a side-footed lob for

04:20particularly effective

04:22now this will fall for Shabbalala

04:24tight angle

04:26oh and the touch

04:28whilst he did manage to get it

04:30couldn't direct the ball towards goal

04:32gets to Serene Shabbalala

04:34unfortunately Shabbalala

04:36I don't think he was looking for Serene on that far post

04:38I think he was taking a shot looking to

04:40maybe hit it with the side or the outside

04:42of the boot so that it gets the kill

04:44towards goal but unspated

04:46by Serene

04:50unfortunately maybe better suited for a right-footed

04:54I guess Serene will have another opportunity here

04:58straight at Daniel Agfey

05:02well Uruguayan

05:04is

05:06certainly entertaining the fans here

05:08and proving what a good acquisition he was

05:10oh brilliant touch

05:14cut out easily by Yusuf Mart

05:16yes

05:18Gaston Sereno once again

05:20launching it upfield

05:22Lange Cibaviro in pursuit

05:24he's got bags of pace taking on Mertziani

05:26turning him inside out

05:28Cibaviro forcing his way through

05:30and forcing Riccotto

05:32behind on the far side

05:34Shabbalala once again

05:36he's another for me he's reading the game very well

05:38he's able to find his way into the areas

05:40where he can profit from crosses alike

05:42there he is

05:44lacking all three by himself

05:46no one willing to pull the trigger

05:50Shabbalala

05:52into the path of Gaston Sereno

05:54silly continues on

05:56Sereno for Cibaviro

05:58Sereno

06:00the former Gallants man

06:02has put it over the top

06:06yes they're not scoring

06:08but you know it's always so positive

06:10when the team is playing on the front foot

06:12creating this nature of passes

06:14what a pass into Cibaviro's path

06:16it's a great save

06:18Agfey makes the save

06:22Agfey starting to organise his wall

06:24he's been screaming trying to line them up

06:26does go direct

06:28and it was a tricky one

06:30for Agfey to be preoccupied

06:32Sereno took it on

06:38he's at a nice saveable height

06:40perhaps if that had dipped earlier

06:42he can contribute

06:44Sereno's ball in

06:46not cleared first time

06:48Shabbalala

06:50and then

06:52Ignacio Miguel

06:54yes

06:56that indeed for me will be a costly one

06:58what happens here

07:00as he tries to unleash the shot

07:02it's blocked and probably caught

07:10Gaston Sereno

07:12continues on

07:14Cibaviro

07:16onside, Cibaviro

07:18great save Agfey

07:20Shabbalala took his time

07:22and it's turned it wide

07:24once a player makes a save

07:26why didn't he get a second touch here at space

07:28but for me that ball was rolling

07:30beautifully towards him

07:32he could have smacked it the first time

07:34now you tell me if he needed a second touch there

07:36but even that second touch

07:38took forever for him to

07:40to unleash

07:42excellent work by Cibaviro

07:44but maybe not wide enough

07:46to kill it past the goalkeeper

07:48potential taker

07:52it's the toilet

07:54looks to have gone direct

07:56maybe just wanted to put it right on top of the

07:58goalkeeper and

08:00Kotso was the man who really threw himself at it

08:02and he nearly got the better

08:04of the goalkeeper because he was coming

08:06cutting in front of the goalkeeper

08:08and the goalkeeper was just standing in one position

08:10very very close

08:16now Duba

08:18oh Duba with the pace

08:20he's brought him down

08:22because there wasn't much left for him

08:24to cover as far as pace

08:26so yes Koppi

08:28this is Kotso now

08:30on second thought

08:32the referee is taking

08:34his time to consider

08:36it

08:38if he stays

08:40against Le Mans for golden hours

08:42there it is

08:44across slipping a ball through

08:46here for Serrino

08:48in turn finds Duba

08:50Mandina Duba

08:52to the edge of the area

08:54oh what a goal

08:56oh my goodness

08:58oh what a beauty

09:00teenage sensation

09:02and here's a new dynamic

09:04to the Kaiser Chiefs play

09:06look how quickly they move the ball upfield

09:08with the pass for me is where the key

09:10happened and then obviously Duba here

09:12I thought he actually delayed with the cross

09:14but he picked the

09:16better one but Mars

09:18had to do something

09:20more beautiful by just keeping

09:22that ball knowing that Mfundu was behind

09:24him

09:26then from there it was clear

09:28what needed to be done there

09:30Kelsit way past Daniel Abbey

09:32Abbey

09:34I mean Mars did beautifully

09:36he's the one that saw this opportunity

09:38could have actually taken it
