Nabi outshines Riveiro as Kaizer Chiefs stun Pirates

Briefly News previously had a chat with renowned football journalist Brighton Bafana following Kaizer Chiefs' 2-1 victory over Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday, 10 May 2025.

The Soweto Derby lived up to the billing, but it was Yusuf Maart’s late wonder goal that etched Amakhosi into history once again.

Bafana hailed Nasreddine Nabi for masterminding a victory that not only ended Kaizer Chiefs' decade-long trophy drought but also cemented his credibility as a tactician.
