With the regular midfielder on a leave of absence, Nkosi has been tasked with keeping the team ticking, and he scored in Chiefs' 1-0 CAF Champions League victory over Township Rollers in Botswana last Saturday.
“It was more of a team goal,” Nkosi tells the Chiefs website. “The preparation, the way the goal happened – it involved a couple of players. It was a structured goal for the team. It was crucial to get that win over Rollers.
“I always try to do my best whenever getting an opportunity to play. It’s sometimes not easy, because when you don’t play regularly, you lack a bit of match rhythm. But I have now played two games in a row.

“However, the team always comes first. We have found our rhythm again and that’s a positive going into the game against Ajax. We have won two games in a row and that has lifted the morale of the team. We worked hard at training to fix a few problems.
“They [Ajax] are excellent on the ball and they are quick. Ajax have a good side. However, we are motivated to get past them and get the three points. Past results are history.”
