GK Appreciation - Itumeleng Khune Lauds Daniel Akpeyi's Soweto Derby Performance

Having come under much scrutiny by critics leading up to the tie against Orlando Pirates in February, the call was made for Akpeyi to put on a spectacle in the biggest game on the PSL calendar.

The Nigerian didn't disappoint and was the star in Amakhosi's 1-0 win over their bitter rivals. Whether it was point-blank saves or back-to-back shot-stopping, the Chiefs goalkeeper looked unplayable on the day.
