Kaizer Chiefs and Bafana Bafana number one Itumeleng Khune recently had reason to celebrate despite his team's dismal run of form. Did you see why?
Coming off the back of a 2-1 CAF Confederations Cup second leg defeat to minnows Zimamoto, Khune took to Instagram to share the news that his girlfriend, TV personality Sbahle Mpisane, had been discharged from hospital, three months after she was involved in a horrific car accident.
'The Fitness Bunny', as Mpisane is affectionately known, was involved in an accident when her luxury BMW glided off the tarmac and made contact with a street post.
Mpisane had to be rescued through the Jaws of Life in the early hours of the morning of 9 August.
Khune could not hide his jubilation and described it as a "day of celebration" on his Instagram page. Although in a wheelchair and her arms heavily clad with bandages, Mpisane seems to have made a good recovery.

The news would come as a welcomed distraction for Khune, in spite of Chiefs not baring the best results under Giovanni Solinas this season.
Itu's confidence, however, remains sky high as he even offered to take a free-kick in Amakhosi's 2-1 loss to Golden Arrows in the Absa Premiership last week.

Do you think Chiefs can turn the corner?
