Kaizer Chiefs star Ngcobo 'high in spirit' after Orlando Pirates win and looking to beat Wydad Casablanca

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Nkosingiphile Ngcobo says they are spurred by their Soweto derby victory against Orlando Pirates in their last game as they welcome continental heavyweights Wydad Casablanca for Saturday’s Caf Champions League Group C clash.

Although their last Champions League outing was a 0-0 draw away at Petro Atletico de Luanda just over two weeks ago, Chiefs went on to beat Orlando Pirates 1-0 five days later to end a three-match run of failing to triumph over their Soweto rivals.

Ngcobo says the Pirates win boosted their mentality going into the Wydad match.
