Gabriel calls for killer instinct as Richards Bay brace for Chiefs test
Richards Bay coach Ronnie Gabriel has urged his side to convert possession into goals ahead of a tough trip to face in-form Kaizer Chiefs. Photo: Backpagepix Richards Bay coach Ronnie Gabriel has urged his side to sharpen up in front of goal as they prepare for a daunting Betway Premiership clash against in-form Kaizer Chiefs at the FNB Stadium next Tuesday. The Natal Rich Boyz have endured a stuttering start to the campaign, losing their opening two fixtures against Marumo Gallants and Golden Arrows. While performances have shown promise, Gabriel is concerned by his team's inability to turn dominance into points. Speaking after their narrow defeat to Abafana Bes'thende, the co-coach lamented wasted opportunities. 'We have to be more ruthless in attack when we have our opponents against the wall, because just look at how the match ended,' Gabriel said. 'In terms of the synergy in the team, we feel the telepathy between some of the players, and we can see that we are playing a good brand of football, we just need to start punishing the opposition.'

Kaizer Chiefs' winning streak and clean sheets calm expectations ahead of Richards Bay clash
Kaizer Chiefs assistant coach Cédric Kaze and Co aim to extend their perfect start against Richards Bay, while Orlando Pirates face a stern Stellenbosch test at Orlando Stadium. Photo: Backpagpiex Image: Backpagepix After their promising start to the Betway Premiership season, which saw Kaizer Chiefs secure two victories in their opening games, the team has enjoyed a few days of tranquillity ahead of Tuesday's game against winless visitors Richards Bay. Two Premiership rounds in, the team's triumphs and clean sheets have also fostered a sense of calm within the squad as they gear up for their upcoming encounter. Mzansi's most beloved football club, Chiefs frequently face sky-high expectations from their devoted fanbase. The weight of these expectations can be burdensome, especially in moments of defeat. However, the recent victories have alleviated some of that pressure, inspiring confidence that could prove pivotal in their next fixture. In the enforced absence of Nasreddine Nabi, assistant coaches Khalil Ben Youssef and Cédric Kaze have been steering the ship and keeping the side on the winning path. Chiefs now share the top of the league standings with Durban City, Marumo Gallants and Sekhukhune United, all on six points from two outings. Kaze praised the team's resilience and tactical acumen. The wins have highlighted their potential, allowing the players to build chemistry and momentum early in the season. Kaze will undoubtedly be looking to maintain this positive trajectory as his squad prepares to take on the 'Natal Rich Boyz', who are still searching for their first points of the campaign. History often shows that when anticipating a game against lower-ranked teams, complacency can become a silent foe. However, with a squad rich in talent and experience, Chiefs are expected to approach the match with the seriousness it deserves. Video Player is loading.

'That's why those points, those victories, give you time to work more easily, in an easier way because people are confident, people are happy.' Despite the positive start, Kaze was quick to temper enthusiasm, reminding fans and players that the season is still in its infancy. 'We need, as well, to know that we haven't arrived and we're still very, very far. We have to work very hard,' he said, stressing the importance of maintaining focus and dedication. 'I'm pretty sure that if everyone is pulling in the same direction, we will get it right.' Chiefs will look to build on their early momentum, and the match against Richards Bay presents an opportunity to solidify their position at the top of the league table. All eyes will also turn to Orlando Stadium on Wednesday, when Orlando Pirates take on a formidable opponent known for their knack of causing upsets, Stellenbosch FC. Historically, Stellenbosch have posed a significant threat to the Buccaneers on their home turf. Both teams come into this midweek clash after competing in the weekend's MTN8 semi-finals. The coaches of both sides now face a crucial dilemma: field their strongest eleven in pursuit of Premiership points, or rotate their squads to preserve energy for the important MTN8 semi-final second legs on Saturday. Under pressure to perform well in front of their home fans, Pirates will be eager to assert dominance and banish any lingering doubts from previous encounters with Stellenbosch.

Why Kaizer Chiefs fans should be excited about the arrival of Asenele Velebayi
After one of the longest transfer sagas in the history of South African football, Kaizer Chiefs have finally got their man and confirmed the signing of Asenele Velebayi. While Cape Town Spurs will continue to fight, Velebayi joins Chiefs on a free transfer after the Western Cape side were relegated from the Motsepe Foundation Championship at the end of last season. His arrival also comes at a time when Chiefs are entering a second season under Nasreddine Nabi, a coach who demands energy, bravery, and creativity in the final third. Nabi's sides play with purpose and attacking intent, constantly looking to stretch defences and create overloads in dangerous areas. That philosophy aligns perfectly with Velebayi's natural game – a willingness to take risks, drive at opponents, and create opportunities out of nothing. So, what can the 22-year-old from Philipi in Cape Town offer the Soweto giants? First of all, despite his young age, he is mature, and has been playing professionally for five seasons. He is also comfortable in multiple attacking roles – primarily a right winger, but equally effective on the left or in an advanced midfield role. Chiefs have been desperate for attacking spark, and Velebayi brings exactly that – a creative, unpredictable presence who can beat defenders, excite the crowd, and unlock stubborn backlines. His speed, and ability to take on defenders will also come in handy. Over the last couple of seasons, Chiefs have not had unpredictable players who can wow the crowd and leave defenders flat-footed. Another area where Velebayi thrives is his productivity during games. He is able to put the ball on a plate for strikers to score, something the club have been struggling with of late. And, because he was entrusted with the captain's armband by his former club, he is also a good leader on the pitch. This is a signing that Amakhosi's scouting department got right for once. If he hits the ground running, Velebayi could become a game-changing force on the wing, leaving defenders scrambling and transforming Chiefs' frontline under Nabi's fearless, attack-minded approach – finally giving the Amakhosi faithful the unpredictability they've been craving.
