Cape Town - Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Siphelele Ntshangase has vowed to put his emotions aside when Amakhosi host Black Leopards in the Telkom knockout tie on Sunday.
Ntshangase burst onto the scene during his time at Lidoda Duvha but left the club while they were still in the National First Division in search of greener pastures in the Premiership.
The 25-year-old will now face his former team for the first time on Sunday and believes helping Amakhosi win the cup tie will be more important than his emotions.
"It's going to be an emotional game. I still have some friends at Leopards. However, I am now a Khosi, I want to win trophies and that's why I came to Chiefs," Ntshangase told his club website.
"Leopards will come all guns blazing, because they have nothing to lose. It's an opportunity for the players to shine and be noticed.
"We respect Leopards, but we will have to look at the bigger picture and that's that we want to progress to the quarterfinals of the Telkom Knockout.
"We took a lot of positives out of that Macufe Cup game against Bloemfontein Celtic, and we have been working hard at training to further improve.
"I am sure our supporters will be there and be our 12th man, because we are playing good football. To be honest, we haven't even reached our best yet."
