Tinkler Reflects on Impressive Record Against Chiefs

On Tuesday evening, Cape Town City FC secured a 1-0 win over Kaizer
Chiefs, a result which saw Eric Tinkler become the most successful coach
against Amakhosi in the DStv Premiership. Having faced them 24 times in
total, Tinkler has won 12 of those matches with four different teams:
SuperSport United, Orlando Pirates, Maritzburg United and now the
Citizens.

Tinkler opened up on the record, saying, “I’ve been fortunate enough to
have coached some great teams in my career, and I’ve had the opportunity
to face Kaizer Chiefs many times. I’m proud that I’ve been able to come
out with a win more often than not, and it’s a testament to the hard work
of the players and the coaching staff.”

The result saw City move to fourth on the DStv Premiership standings,
while Chiefs remain rooted to the bottom of the table. Tinkler is hopeful
that the win will provide the team with the confidence to push on for the
remainder of the season.

“It’s been a tough season so far, but the win against Chiefs will give us
the confidence to push on and fight for a top-four finish,” he said.
“We’re still a long way from where we want to be, but this result is a
step in the right direction.”
