Zuma explains why Chief Kaiser must fight for a big victory over Simba SC

Chief Kaizer attacking midfielder Dumisani Zuma is wary of the difficult second leg. He said that it is important to score an important victory in the Caf Champions League quarter-final match against Simba SC at the FNB Stadium on Saturday night. .

Before this season, the Chiefs never even entered the final group stage of Africa’s top clubs.

According to Zuma, the players are aware of the historical significance of Saturday’s game, and while enjoying the game they are playing, they don’t want to stop the game now.

Zuma told the Amakhosi media department: “This is the first time that the Kaiser Chiefs have reached the quarterfinals, so we are very grateful.”

“We are ready to meet the challenge-we are not ready to make up for the numbers, and we want to go further in the competition.”

The second round of the match will be held on May 22 at the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Zuma said that when Amakhosi took over Simba in his backyard, it was crucial to have a good first-round advantage.

“We are very clear that this will not be a simple game, but I think we have to take advantage of our home game. This is not easy, because once we win with a higher score, it will help us play. “He added.

“The important thing is that we must never lose any game, at home or away. I believe in the boys.”

This is the second time Simba has reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. It reached that stage in the 2018/19 season before being eliminated 4-1 by Thoth Puisansan Mazumbe of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. .

Entering the game on Saturday, the visiting team won their last five games in the domestic competition. However, their last game ended on April 27, after Carriacou Derby against Yanga SC was cancelled last weekend.

Since defeating Chief Mamelodi Sundowns on April 25, the Chiefs have won four consecutive victories.
