Kaizer Chiefs have gone an unprecedented five seasons without winning a trophy and Ernst Middendorp is under the pump to deliver a piece of silverware.
JOHANNESBURG - Kaizer Chiefs find themselves in another position to end their dreaded trophy drought as they prepare for another Nedbank Cup semifinal, this time against relegation-threatened Chippa United in Port Elizabeth on Saturday.
“Of course, there is pressure. You start a game at a zero point, you have to perform, you have to win, that is the obligation of a brand and a club like Kaizer Chiefs. But we should be able to manage it.” Middendorp though said the preparation for the crucial cup match begun the minute they travelled back from their 1-all draw with Black Leopards at the Thoyondou Stadium on the weekend.
