Kaizer Chiefs boss Nasreddine Nabi is duly impressed by a new player in the squad who acquitted himself well against Sekhukhune.
Nabi impressed by Aden McCarthy on debut
With a squad beset by injuries and suspensions, coach Nasreddine Nabi has had to dig deep into his reserves to put a team out. Against Sekhukhune, Aden McCarthy was handed his PSL debut at left-back. The 21-year-old didn’t disappoint. McCarthy can play any position across the back four, which could see him become a key member of the group.
“I want to take the opportunity to congratulate Aden McCarthy. It was his first game in the Premier League, and he gave a very good performance,” Nabi told SuperSport TV.

Meanwhile, despite going behind early in the contest, Nabi’s Kaizer Chiefs secured what might prove to be a massive point away to Sekhukhune in a 1-1 draw thanks to Glody Lilepo’s equaliser deep into first-half stoppage time. It means the Glamour Boys can guarantee an MTN8 place with a win on the final day at home against Polokwane City. However, Polokwane sit two points above Chiefs, although their MTN8 place is already sealed.
