Kaizer Chiefs allowed me to play for Zimbabwe against Somalia – Billiat

Kaizer Chiefs striker Khama Billiat has explained how he was allowed by Amakhosi to honour his call-up to the Zimbabwean national team after he was pronounced as injured by the Soweto giants.

After failing to finish their Premier Soccer League (PSL) match against Cape Town City more than a week ago after he suffered a pelvic injury, the skilful attacker was in action for the Warriors this week in a Fifa World Cup qualifier against Somalia.

Although Chiefs previously announced the 29-year-old was doubtful for this weekend's match against Polokwane City through injury, coach Ernst Middendorp seemingly expressed shock to see Billiat in action for his country.
