Kaizer Chiefs' Cardoso explains 'good run in midfield' as Richards Bay lie in wait

Kaizer Chiefs defender-cum-midfielder Daniel Cardoso says he is enjoying his new role as a defensive linkman and looks to thrive more in that position.

Cardoso has managed to establish himself as the first choice defensive linkman in recent games ahead of Willard Katsande, Njabulo Bloem and Kearyn Baccus after he was shifted from central defence by coach Gavin Hunt.

The switch has coincided with Chiefs improving in their performances including qualifying for the Caf Champions League group phase as well as managing a Premier Soccer League five-game unbeaten run until rivals Orlando Pirates edged them 2-1 last weekend.
