Amazulu has been the revelation of the South African DSTV Premier Soccer League after the team finished second last season. Benni McCarthy was appointed coach last season and he led the team to a great feat. This season the team has qualified for the group stage of the CAF Champions League after elbowing out TP Mazembe. In the league the team has lined up a series of unwanted results lately.
Kicking off their league game against visiting Chippa United on Tuesday afternoon, Benni's men could climb up to third place with a win.
Standing in their way is Cameroonian striker Bienvenu Eva Nga. The Chippa number 9 scored two quick goals to punish Amazulu. The attacker profited from a goalkeeping error to open scoring 23 minutes into the game. He later out paced the home side's backline to burry a low short with his left foot. The player has now scored five goals in four league games for Chippa and becomes the first player to score in four successive league games for the club.
Amazulu got two goals back in the second half at the 64th and 83rd minutes through second half substitute Memela.
They dominated possession 65/35 and chances. Got 15 corner kicks in the game but all attempts only led to the team's 12th league draw of the season in 17 matches. They are stuck on 8th spot while the visitors Chippa are just above relegation on 14th. Chippa with 15 has two games less than their opponents Amazulu.
