The story

Ahead of Saturday's clash of the titans between Amakhosi and Mamelodi Sundowns, Chiefs defender Inácio Miguel reserved some praise for his centre back partner.

Miguel and Rushwin Dortley have made a great start to life in Naturena, with head coach Nasreddine Nabi prefering the duo over Given Msimango and Thatayaone Ditlhokwe in the heart of Chiefs' defence.

Speaking after the joint Chiefs and Sundowns press-conference in Midrand on Thursday, the Angolan international stated that he's impressed with the former Cape Town Spurs man.

"Dortley is a talented player, he's young and he's very humble. He likes to listen and this is the most important message for the young players, is that they have to listen. Even when they don't want to," noted Miguel, when speaking to journalists after Chiefs' joint-presser with Downs.

"Dortley is a fantastic human being and I'm very happy for him and his performances. He's doing great not only for Kaizer Chiefs but also the national team, he's starting a very interesting career and I truly believe in him," he tells the media in a clip shared by photographer Pitsi Vincent Matlou (a.k.a Vino Snap).
