Samir Nurkovic scored the only goal of the game as KaizerChiefs stunned WACofficiel in the first leg of their Caf Champions League semi-final clash. By Herman_Gibbs | IOLsport

Just past the half-hour mark, the visiting Chiefs scoring the opening goal against the run of play. Chiefs staged a break-out from deep inside their half, and midfielder Njabulo Blom was sent clear down the left flank.

After Blom raced clear of the chasing defence, he reeled in a goalmouth cross which the Serbian-born striker Samir Nurković met on edge of the Wydad penalty area. With a deft first-time touch, he steered it into the goals past goalkeeper Yanis Hénin. The linesman flagged Nurković offside but after checking play on the Video Assistant Referee the goal was allowed.

In the second half, Wydad again enjoyed a glut of possession. However, Chiefs were content to soak up the pressure and protect their slender 1-0 lead. Chiefs' central defence was particularly effective and checked several threatening sorties around the fringes of the penalty area.
