Kaizer Chiefs' stalwart goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune says being voted into the starting line-up of DStv Compact Cup side Amabutho 'gave me hope', and he was determined to take the chance to impress after being relegated firmly to the sidelines at Amakhosi.

Warriors and Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune during the DStv Compact Cup press conference at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on January 27 2022.Kaizer Chiefs’ stalwart goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune says being voted into the starting line-up of DStv Compact Cup side Warriors “gave me hope”, and he was determined to impress after being relegated to the sidelines at Amakhosi this season.

Khune said he wanted to repay the supporters who voted for the crowd favourite for their faith in selecting him for the Warriors XI in the new tournament that allows fans to vote for line-ups. “Obviously there was that part. As soon as I saw that — how many goalkeepers do we have at all the clubs and myself and Bruce were the selected ones — it gave me hope,” Khune said ahead of Saturday’s Compact third-place playoff and final at FNB Stadium.“I’m not out here to prove any point to anyone that I’ve still got it. But just to enjoy myself and give the fans who still believe in me and have voted in me something to smile about.
