The Amakhosi crowned Absa Cup kings

Kaizer Chiefs were crowned new Absa Cup champions when they beat Orlando Pirates 5-3 in a penalty shootout at Durban’s King's Park Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The two teams were deadlocked in a goalless draw at the end of the mandatory 90 minutes and additional 30 minutes of extra-time. Chiefs goalkeeper Rowen Fernandez secured the match with a saved penalty and slotting in the winning penalty kick. The victory is generally regarded as the Amakhosi’s biggest achievement this season, as it was the only silverware they could pocket.
