Hunt facing up to Kaizer Chiefs realities as problem mount with Soweto derby defeat

It was a tough day in the office for Kaizer Chiefs head coach Gavin Hunt as his side lost 3-0 to Orlando Pirates in a first leg MTN8 semi-final match at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The most successful coach currently in the Premier Soccer League, Hunt would have been relishing leading South Africa’s most popular club out into battle against their traditional Soweto rivals.

However, it all went wrong on the day. It wasn’t that Chiefs were played off the park by Pirates. It was more a case of Amakhosi shooting themselves in the foot on several occasions and the Buccaneers ruthlessly capitalising on those mistakes.
