Overview

  • Kaizer Chiefs drew 1-1 with Marumo Gallants at FNB Stadium as Khanyisa Mayo marked his debut with the opener before Jaisen Clifford equalised late on.
  • The result extends Chiefs’ slide to three matches without a win following a 3-1 league loss to Sekhukhune United and a 1-0 defeat away to Kabuscorp in Luanda.
  • Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef are in temporary charge after Nasreddine Nabi’s departure, with selections and structure under fresh scrutiny.
  • Chiefs host Kabuscorp in Saturday’s CAF Confederation Cup second leg needing a 2-0 victory to advance, while a 1-0 win would take the tie to penalties.
  • Mayo’s minutes were managed as he builds match fitness, with the interim staff noting a planned 50–60 minute outing for the on‑loan forward from CR Belouizdad.
