'Akpeyi's replacing Alisson as the best keeper in the world' - Kaizer Chiefs fan appreciation

Kaizer Chiefs beat Cape Town City on penalties in the Round of 16 of the Telkom Knockout Cup on Saturday.

With the match ending 1-1 at full-time, Amakhosi keeper Daniel Akpeyi became the hero in the shootout, as his saves dramatically won the match for the visitors.
