HOW NTSEKI WILL PLAY

Having worked with Ntseki in the lower division in 2008 at African Warriors, Bafana Bafana’s interim head coach in the COSAFA Cup, Morena Ramoreboli, says Amakhosi fans should anticipate high-octane football.

“Coach Ntseki likes to play a high-tempo game, high-intensity football, and obviously, looking at the signings the club has made now, I think Given Msimango will give him that option of starting from the back and being able to play those diagonal and vertical passes,” Ramoreboli said as quoted by FARPost.

Meanwhile, Ntseki’s first major test will away to Cape Town City in the MTN8 quarter-finals in August. The date and venue are yet to be confirmed.
