Downs legend: This Kaizer Chiefs is different

Former Mamelodi Sundowns captain Hlompho Kekana had plenty of praise for Kaizer Chiefs following their 4-0 hammering of SuperSport United in the last 16 of the Carling Knockout.

The Soweto giants kept their title hopes alive with a convincing 4-0 hammering of Matsatsantsa at New Peter Mokaba Stadium on Saturday evening. Gaston Sirino, Ranga Chivaviro, Yusuf Maart and Ashley Du Preez all did the damage in front of goal.

Speaking on SABC Sport after the match, the retired midfielder turned analyst said he was impressed by Chiefs' improvement.

"This Kaizer Chiefs team is different compared to the seasons before in terms of how they attack and in terms of how they consolidate in the midfield," Kekana said.

"I love their structure, I love that when they go forward, they go with a lot of passes into the box. 

"I love how they know that a match is a match of two boxes. These goals that they scored are goals from the training ground. The set pieces, even the Gaston Sirino goal where it came from Reeve Frosler

"Of course they are building, as they say, but they are looking very good in their building."
