The deafening noise that greeted the final whistle, the singing of the Chiefs’ fans, was not just to a victory to their team, but in tribute to a magnificent derby.
Daniel Cardoso’s penalty, after substitute Bernard Parker was brought down, earned Chiefs an 84th-minute winner. This is how the derby should be played. This is what the fans have packed two stadiums on successive weekends for. Pirates coach Rulani Mokwena had a problem in his defence to solve. Bucs had struggled to contain Chiefs’ aggressive attack in Durban, where right-back Mthokozisi Dube was red-carded. Captain and centreback Happy Jele was then dismissed in their midweek 0-0 home draw against Maritzburg United.
Inside the first minute Maela received an aerial ball on the edge of his area on the right and his header looped backwards towards Nyauza. Nyauza appeared to try to head to Wayne Sandilands, but somehow misconnected over the advancing goalkeeper and into his own net.But Pirates had put themselves under pressure conceding so softly, and Chiefs onto the front foot.
