Nabi Blames Fatigue For Kaizer Chiefs' Embarrassing Loss Against Supersport

As much as he admitted his team deserved to lose, Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi suggested fatigue played a role in Tuesday's 1-4 Betway Premiership humiliation by SuperSport United.

Chiefs hosted SuperSport in the league at FNB Stadium just four days after outwitting Chippa United 3-0 in the Nedbank Cup last 16 at the same venue.

Amakhosi came into the game on a promising two wins in succession, having beaten Stellenbosch FC 2-0 in their league clash at Athlone Stadium on February 7.

SuperSport, before facing Amakhosi, had last played seven days earlier, beating Cape Town Spurs 2-1 in the same round of the Nedbank Cup at home.

Nabi felt the extra three days Matsatsantsa had in the build-up gave Gavin Hunt's team the edge.
