Nabi Aims for Nedbank Cup Glory with Chiefs

Kaizer Chiefs’ head coach Nasreddine Nabi is dedicated to securing the Nedbank Cup for the Amakhosi supporters as they prepare for the final against Orlando Pirates at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday.

Although the team is currently in ninth place in the Betway Premiership with 30 points, Nabi’s focus remains on clinching victory in the domestic cup.

The last time the Chiefs celebrated winning the Nedbank Cup was in 2014, under coach Stuart Baxter, who guided them to victory against Orlando Pirates at the same venue.

This historical background enhances Nabi’s resolve to deliver a remarkable performance.

On the other hand, the Buccaneers aim to create history by winning the Nedbank Cup for the third year in a row under coach Jose Riveiro.

The Pirates have already accomplished this in the MTN8 Cup, underscoring their prowess in South African football.

As Amakhosi grapple with challenges in the league, the Nedbank Cup final offers a chance for redemption and serves as a crucial trophy to uplift team spirits.

“We don’t want to say too much, but we will do our best to bring them [the fans] the Nedbank Cup,” Nabi stated.

“That’s what they desire, and we’ll do everything possible to make them proud.”

Nabi’s dedication to victory emphasizes the significance of this match for the Amakhosi.

The result will dictate whether the Amakhosi will break their trophy drought or endure further waiting.
