Kaizer Chiefs’ coach Nasreddine Nabi is committed to securing the Nedbank Cup for the Amakhosi fans as they gear up for the final against Orlando Pirates at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday.
Despite the team currently sitting in ninth place in the Betway Premiership with 30 points, Nabi is focused on achieving success in the domestic cup.
The last time the Chiefs won the Nedbank Cup was in 2014 under coach Stuart Baxter, who led the team to victory over Orlando Pirates at the same venue.
This historical context strengthens Nabi’s determination to deliver an exceptional performance.
Conversely, the Buccaneers are looking to make history by clinching the Nedbank Cup for the third consecutive year under coach Jose Riveiro.
The Pirates have already achieved this feat in the MTN8 Cup, showcasing their dominance in South African football.
As the Amakhosi face difficulties in the league, the Nedbank Cup final presents an opportunity for redemption and a vital trophy to boost team morale.
“We don’t want to say too much, but we will do our utmost to bring the Nedbank Cup to them [the fans],” Nabi remarked.
“That’s what they yearn for, and we’ll do everything we can to make them proud.”
Nabi’s commitment to achieving victory highlights the significance of this match for the Amakhosi.
The outcome will dictate whether the Amakhosi will end their trophy drought or continue their wait.
