BULAWAYO Chiefs walked away three points richer after a solitary strike fired in the first half proved a burden for visiting Black Rhinos to wipe away in a Castle Lager Premier League match played at Luveve Stadium yesterday.

It was just the fourth win for Chiefs, which was however, not enough to see them get off the bottom of the log after Yadah drew 1-1 with Herentals. 

Amakhosi Amahle needed eight minutes to track the rhinos roaming around their kingdom. Once located, a thunderbolt fired by Shadreck Nyahwa was enough to keep the army side at bay. 

Less than two minutes later they could have gone two up after they were awarded a penalty only for Lucky Ndlela to hit the upright much to the pain and agony of his fellow teammates.

Chiefs physical trainer Thulani Sibanda expressed happiness with the way his boys played which led to the narrow win.

His counterpart Herbert Maruwa blamed his players for the number of missed chances while reserving comment about how the game was handled by the officials.
