Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze believes the team’s narrow victory against Durban City could provide the morale boost needed as the club pushes to regain confidence during the season.
Chiefs secured a 1–0 win at FNB Stadium, a result that Kaze hopes will help lift the mood within the squad after a period of inconsistent performances.

According to the Chiefs co-coach, winning matches — regardless of the margin — is essential for restoring belief among players.
“Sometimes one win is all a team needs to start believing again,” Kaze suggested when reflecting on the result.
For a team like Kaizer Chiefs, where expectations are always high, positive results can quickly shift the atmosphere in the dressing room.
