Kaizer Chiefs bounced back from their MTN8 quarterfinal exit with a 2 nil victory over Sekhukhune United in the Betway Premiership on Wednesday evening. The match, played at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg, saw 20 year old Luke Baartman score his first senior goal for Amakhosi before substitute Mduduzi Shabalala sealed the result in the second half. The victory gives Fernando Da Cruz’s side two wins from their opening two league matches and provides an important confidence boost ahead of Saturday’s home fixture against defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns.
