Kaizer Chiefs captain Samir Nurkovic received a round of applause from his coach Gavin Hunt and teammates after showcasing his control of a teasing diagonal ball from Reeve Frosler.

The Serbian striker came close to breaking the deadlock for Amakhosi after 20 minutes when he excellently controlled a long diagonal ball from Frosler and unleashed a volley in his stride that missed slightly over the bar.

Despite his performance for Chiefs, Orlando Pirates managed to secure all three points and the bragging rights following their 2-1 victory over Amakhosi at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday.
