The decision comes after Chippa United were beaten 3-1 by Sekhukhune United on Wednesday evening.

The result that left the Eastern Cape side with just two points from the relegation drop and three matches left for the season.

Chippa United has reportedly dismissed its third head coach, Vusumuzi Vilakazi, after 18 games, following the earlier departures of Sinethemba Badela (2 games) and Luc Eymael (7 games).

VUSUMUZI VILAKAZI LOSES HIS CHIPPA UNITED JOB

“Chippa United have sacked head coach Vusumuzi Vilakazi just hours after their 3-1 defeat to Sekhukhune United on Wednesday evening,” iDiski Times’ Sinethemba Makonco reported.

Before losing to Sekhukhune, the Chilli Boyz were hammered 5-1 by AmaZulu, raising fears that the team could still be dragged into the relegation playoff position.

The club currently sits 13th on the table with 24 points from 27 matches. While they remain outside the playoff spot for now, the gap is only two points, meaning every remaining fixture has now become a survival mission.

Zambia Super League champions Power Dynamos maintained their unbeaten run after a 0-0 draw against Kansanshi Dynamos in a tightly contested rescheduled Week 25 fixture in Solwezi on Wednesday.

Kansanshi started strongly and looked to unsettle the visitors early, but Power’s defence remained organised and cleared the early danger. Kenya striker Moses Shumah returned to Dynamos squad after missing previous two matches owing to illness.

Dynamos gradually grew into the match, with Ronel Manyanga creating several promising moments, including a dangerous free kick and a chance for Innocent Kashita.

Mwanza saved Dynamos in early stages

Kansanshi threatened through Kalonji Mwepu, who tested goalkeeper Willard Mwanza and came close with an effort that hit the side netting.

Both teams continued to push for a breakthrough, but strong defending and missed chances meant the match remained goalless at halftime.

The second half followed a similar pattern, with both sides staying compact despite substitutions, and the match ended 0-0 as defensive discipline outweighed attacking precision.

The result kept Dynamos focused as they turn their attention to the upcoming ABSA Cup final, which will be played on May 10.

Dynamos, who has already wrapped up the title, moved to 71 points at the summit amassed from 21 wins, eight draws, and two defeats. The game saw Kansanshi give Dynamos a wrap of honour.

Bulls attack coach Neil de Bruin said he hopes his side are at a level where they can win play-off matches, but there is still work to be done in a few key areas.

The Pretoria side face bottom-of-the-table Zebre on Saturday (kick-off 1.45pm) and 13th-ranked Benetton next week, in their final league phase games before the United Rugby Championship play-offs starting at the end of the month.

The Bulls have never failed to reach the play-offs, and have finished as runners-up three times to Stormers, Glasgow Warriors, and Leinster.

Now, they are seventh on the log and, after two away wins, return to Loftus Versfeld for their final two matches.

They are expected not only to secure a top-eight finish but also to challenge for a place in the top four, with the teams above them facing tougher fixtures.

Bulls work on discipline

The games against Zebre and Benetton are chances for the Bulls to fine-tune key areas.

“I think our discipline at key moments definitely is something we’re working hard on,” the Bulls attack coach said, referring to yellow cards received during their matches against Scarlets and Munster in recent weeks.

“On the attacking side, getting the balance right between keeping the ball when it’s needed and throwing it when it’s on.

“We haven’t been completely on the mark with that over the last couple of games. Those will definitely cost you.”

‘I love it when we defend well’

De Bruin said poor defence let the Bulls down in the early season, as seen in their seven-match losing streak.

Still, he said attack and defence should not always be considered independently. A game plan based on either kicking or retaining possession can stretch or consolidate a team’s defence.

The Bulls had looked at not having too much of one or the other.

“It’s a combined effort. So we’ve been defending really well over the last couple of weeks, and that has given us the ability to score tries off the back of it.

“Johan [Ackermann] needs massive credit for the work he’s put in and the work the boys have put in defensively. I love it when we defend well, because you know what happens [in attack] off the back of that.”

De Bruin said the team is in a good place and working on what they need to. Closely contested play-offs will come down to small margins between the sides, with execution being key.

Prise lors du conseil des ministres du mercredi 6 mai, la décision intervient alors que l'institution créée en 2001 faisait l'objet de nombreuses critiques, notamment dans la classe politique. Si aucune information n’a été donnée sur le mécanisme de gestion des élections appelé à la remplacer, « l'objectif est de garantir de façon durable l'organisation d'élections apaisées », a déclaré le ministre porte-parole du gouvernement, Amadou Coulibaly.
