The Amakhosi mentor sings his net minder’s praises following their victory over the Buccaneers
Kaizer Chiefs coach Ernst Middendorp believes goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi’s experience is coming to the fore, saying the gap left by Itumeleng Khune is slowly getting filled.
The Nigerian international has been one of the consistent performers for the Naturena-based club of late, helping Amakhosi to reach the Telkom Knockout Cup semi-finals with a win over Orlando Pirates.
Although Middendorp admits they miss the Bafana number one, but having an experienced keeper who has played at the Fifa World Cup has brought relief.
