Defending champions, Chiefs are finding their feet and have closed the gap between them and Orapa United to three points after their 2-0 win over Gaborone United (GU). The usual suspect, Lemponye Tshireletso, is once again showing up at a crucial time of the season. Tshireletso almost single-handedly drove Chiefs towards the league championship with some brilliant performances in the second round of the league last season. He scored crucial goals consistently and not only helped his side win the league, but also finished as the league’s top goal scorer.
