After Kaizer Chiefs' humiliating defeat, KickOff lifts the lid on how SuperSport United head coach Gavin Hunt masterminded a 4-1 demolition job.
In the aftermath, it looked as if SuperSport had a grudge game with Chiefs, starting with Hunt, alongside Samir Nurkovic and Christian Saile, all former employees at Amakhosi.
Nurkovic was the destroyer-in-chief with one goal and one assist, while Saile registered one goal.

However, a closer analysis reveals Hunt did not use emotions to drive his team to punch above their weight but outclassed the Soweto giants tactically.
It is no secret that the home side have had issues at left-back throughout the season and appeared to have solved those when they switched Thatayaone Ditlhokwe to that position in the Soweto Derby against Orlando Pirates.
However, the defender's exit to Libyan side Al Ittihad recently has seen the old problem resurface, with Bradley Cross starting at left-back on Tuesday.
SuperSport targeted Chiefs' left side of defence throughout the match, with three of their goals coming from exactly that area.
For the opener, Gamphani Lungu was playing over the shoulder of Cross when he received a through ball and played a cross to Nurkovic, who fired home a first-time shot.
Before Makabi Lilepo equalized, Amakhosi could already have been 2-0 down after the former Golden Arrows left-back was found out of position with Lungu free at the back post, firing a shot that was cleared off the line by Rushwin Dortley.
The second SuperSport goal also came through the Glamour Boys' left side of defence, as the visitors overloaded that side and the Serbian striker raced through on goal the same way Lungu did in the first goal, and played a square ball to Saile to finish.

Chiefs head coach Nasreddine Nabi realised where the problem was and withdrew Cross at half-time, bringing on Happy Mashiane at left-back.
However, that did not help, as 18 minutes later Mashiane was caught high out of position and actually slipped and allowed Brooklyn Poggenpoel to go through on goal and play a cross that was spilled by goalkeeper Bruce Bvuma.
Lungu said 'thank you' with a strike into the back of the net from a rebound.
