Kaizer Chiefs kicked off their 2025 TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup campaign with a first-leg match against AS Simba at Stade TP Mazembe in Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of Congo, on October 18.
The game proceeded without official TV or YouTube coverage due to the hosts’ inability to secure local broadcast rights, forcing fans to rely on unofficial streams and social media updates.
The evenly contested tie remained goalless at halftime, with Chiefs fielding Ryan Petersen in goal and a balanced lineup amid broader South African club action in CAF fixtures.
