Arthur Zwane will use his playing experience to manage the anxiety and excitement of Kaizer Chiefs before the Soweto derby against Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup semifinal on May 6.
Zwane played for the Glamour Boys for more than a decade before joining their coaching structures which culminated in him being appointed head coach before the 2022-2023 campaign.
After Chiefs' 1-0 win in a DStv Premiership tie against relegation-threatened Chippa United, Zwane spoke of the need to keep his players focused on the next league game, a mini Soweto derby against Swallows on Monday before they turn their eyes on the big cup match against Pirates. “It's key that, as the technical team, we manage the players and, fortunately, some of us played in these games and we know how important it is for us to keep collecting points before the derby,” Zwane said after Ashley du Preez scored a stunning goal to help Amakhosi beat Chippa in Gqeberha on Thursday.
