Pitso Mosimane said Kaizer Chiefs is very dangerous. Chiefs is one of the most powerful teams in African and in South Africa. This team can surprise you at any given day.“I knew Kaizer Chiefs well when I was in SA,” Pisto Mosimane said.
“This season I don’t know Kaizer Chiefs, because they changed the coach [Hunt replaced Ernst Middendorp at the start of 2020-21], and then they removed that coach and brought another coach [Arthur Zwane as caretaker].

“And in SA in the league they didn’t play very well. Normally they are number two or three behind Sundowns, or four, somewhere there — it’s like Zamalek and Al Ahly here. So they are a good team.
“This is a team that last season when I was at Sundowns, were No.1 from the beginning until the last 15 minutes. And it’s the same team. So you ask yourself, ‘What happened to this team?’
“But you must not look at them on how they have played in the league. Only focus on how they have been in the Champions League. How they came to the final — no-one is lucky to get to the final.
“You never know with them. They can play a very good game, and sometimes they don’t play a very good game.
“They lost 4-0 to Wydad — not in Wydad, in a neutral place. And then they go to Wydad and they win.
“It’s a very difficult team. They lose 3-0 to Simba, and they win 4-0 at home. You can never tell — it’s just another team.
“You must not try and make sense out of it. You must just focus on their games in the Champions League because these are their best games.”
“I don’t know if it’s an advantage or a disadvantage,” Mosimane said of his team going into the Champions League final still playing domestically.
“If you say it’s an advantage [for Ahly], then Chiefs are not playing and they don’t have injuries and all that. You can say it’s a disadvantage for us, we might get injuries and overload from too many games from playing catch-up in the Egyptian league.
“You look at it the way you want to. It’s very tricky.”
