Why a Kaizer Chiefs Caf Champions League triumph would eclipse Orlando Pirates' 1995 win - Tlale

The 54-year-old also told Goal that Amakhosi can take advantage of the fatigue factor against the most successful club in African football

Former Bafana Bafana international John Tlale says a win for Kaizer Chiefs in Saturday's Caf Champions League final would eclipse Orlando Pirates' 1995 continental triumph.

Chiefs will carry the hopes of South Africa when they lock horns with defending champions Al Ahly of Egypt in a highly anticipated final at Stade Mohammed V in Morocco.

Pirates became the first South African club to win the Champions League title 26 years ago and they were honoured by the first State President of the new democratic South Africa, Nelson Mandela.
