Celtic vs Kaizer Chiefs: Amakhosi fully focused in Bloem
Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Nkosingiphile Ngcobo believes the team and can still put a positive spin on their season.
Ngcobo admitted that things haven’t gone Kaizer Chiefs way this term but said there were enough positives in recent weeks to suggest that the tough times won’t last.

“As the league is coming towards the end now, I think it hasn’t been a great season for us as a team but I think there are a lot of positives that we can take and build on them,” Ngcobo said in his pre-match media address.
“It was a season which was not good, but I think somewhere we did well in the CAF – we broke some records. We just have to keep our heads up and finish the season in a better position.”
Kaizer Chiefs need to be sharper in front of goal
Kaizer Chiefs have been made to pay for their profligacy in front of goal this season and Ngcobo highlighted their early missed chances against Chippa as where the team went wrong last time out.
“I missed the game [as an unused substitute] against Mamelodi Sundowns but I really think as a team we did very well. We played with confidence. We applied the plan correctly and we managed to get three points,” he added.
“After that, I came back against Chippa United where things didn’t go our way. We lost the game, and I think we should have scored in the first 30 minutes but we couldn’t, so we just have to focus on our next game which is Bloemfontein Celtic.
“It won’t be easy, but we are prepared, and we will make sure that we go there and get maximum points.”
Depending on results elsewhere, Kaizer Chiefs could move back into the top eight with a win over Celtic in Bloemfontein.
