Arthur Zwane Proud Of 'character, Attitude' Shown By Amazulu In Win Over Chippa United

AmaZulu co-coach Arthur Zwane has heaped praise on the attitude of his players after the club recorded their first win of the 2024/2025 campaign on Tuesday night.

Usuthu scored two first-half goals through Pule Ekstein and Celimpilo Ngema and held on to win 2-0 against Chippa United at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban to momentarily move off the bottom of the Premiership table.

The KwaZulu-Natal club had endured a horror start to the new season, losing their first five matches in all competitions, which led to the sacking of Pablo Franco Martin and the appointment of Zwane and Vusumuzi Vilakazi as co-coaches.

The duo took charge in two of those losses, against Stellenbosch and Orlando Pirates, but emerged from those disappointing results with positives to reflect on.

In a scintillating first-half showing, Usuthu looked a different side against the Chilli Boys and gave Zwane a reason to smile about in the post-match conference.
