Man of the moment Wandile Duba has revealed how Nasreddine Nabi pointed out a weakness in Mamelodi Sundowns' defence that helped Kaizer Chiefs dump their rivals out of the Nedbank Cup.
Chiefs booked their spot to the Nedbank Cup final with a surprise 2-1 win over Sundowns at Loftus Versfeld on Sunday, setting up a mouthwatering final against old nemesis Orlando Pirates.

The hosts had opened the scoring through Teboho Mokoena's free kick on the stroke of hal-ftime, before Duba pounced on Lucas Suarez's misplaced pass to net past Ronwen Williams.
Ashley Du Preez put the tie to bed in the 88th minute after tapping in from close range following an inviting cross from George Matlou.
Speaking to SuperSport TV after the match, Duba revealed the Argentine defender was a target for the Amakhosi attackers.
"The coach told us not to rush them because we all know that Sundowns are good in a build-up so we should wait for the right moments just like the one that led to my goal," he opened up.
"The coach told us their left centre-back has many mistakes so we must set up a trap for him by closing the space on the sides so he can pass the ball to the middle of the park.
"And it worked out just like that, and we scored the goal. Since the start of the week, the coach told us to target their left centre-back," added the outspoken lad.

Meanwhile, the winning goal has sparked plenty of debate as it appeared Du Preez may have been offside when Matlou played the cross.
Amakhosi's progression into the final of the Nedbank Cup marks the first time they have reached that stage of the competition since they went all the way in 2019, eventually losing to TS Galaxy.
