Head coach Arthur Zwane has addressed the celebration of his players after the draw was made.

“It’s not going to be easy as everyone thinks,” warned Zwane.

“Because cup games are totally different to league matches. But as I said, we will treat every game with respect and unfortunately this one is not like any other games – there is a lot at stake.

“If we want to beat Pirates, we are expected to be on top of them and make sure that we win the game.

“I think the excitement comes from knowing that we are playing Pirates and they are also doing well, that will be good for South African football as well, because we are also finding our way up.

“I think it is going to be one game that is very good to watch.” He added.

In the other semi-final fixture, Sekhukhune United will take on Stellenbosch FC – the PSL is yet to confirm the times, dates and venues of these matches. Kaizer Chiefs Players Celebrate Drawing Orlando Pirates in Nedbank Cup!
