Kaizer Chiefs coach Baxter on Hlanti’s devastating injury: ‘It was like a pistol shot’ marc_strydom

Orlando Pirates coach Mandla Ncikazi and Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter at the Soweto Derby press conference at Hotel Sky in Sandton, Johannesburg on November 4 2021.In-form left-back Sifiso Hlanti looks set to miss the rest of the 2021-22 season with a devastating injury he received in training on Thursday, Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter revealed ahead of Saturday’s DStv Premiership Soweto derby against Orlando Pirates.

“Look at me, I’ve got my boot on and I’m not a happy camper at the moment. But I feel so sorry for Sifiso,” said Baxter at Thursday’s pre-match press conference in Sandton to the derby, wearing a moon boot on his right foot for a stress fracture the coach picked up in the gym. “We had done everything, we were in the last two minutes of the 15 minutes playing, Sifiso hit a long, cross-field pass, he was back-pedalling, he put his foot down behind him and I’m not joking, everybody within 20-metres heard it. It was like a pistol shot.

His displays have caught the eye of Bafana coach Hugo Broos, earning the 31-year-old ex-league winner for Bidvest Wits call-ups despite the Belgian’s youth policy for the national team seeing a number of ex-frontline players sidelined.
