Kaizer Chiefs displayed good football on Saturday to get past Chippa United in the Nedbank Cup Round of 16.

The 3-0 win at the FNB Stadium secured the Glamour Boys a quarter-final ticket and kept alive their chances of winning a title for the first time in a decade. It was a massive result for the supporters who desperately needed to see their team in the last eight of the annual competition.

Have a look at what the fans said after that vital win last weekend.

When is the draw? Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns need to come together and form one team. They can go outside the country as well; playing Chiefs won't be fair to them – Phatudi Modiba

What a game-changer in the second half! We were losing the rhythm for a moment, but the introduction of Mduduzi Shabalala picked us up. We bag a win and through to the next round, but going on to the next match, we have to press forward and limit the back passes – Top fan Snr Gratts Eagles

The best thing that can ever happen to us Khosi is winning at least one silverware this season. We need to at least be consoled that we’re building. – Moses Moreroa
