The day that we've been talking about has come. We are going to play soccer. Chiefs versus Aces. Come and watch! Come with your vuvuzela!

1

Wonderful Chiefs, the cup must come to sleep at home. I want us to work together as a team in order to defeat Aces. We must attack wisely, be careful, and pass to each other.

2

Pass the ball, pass it, Portia, Modise! Defend, defend, Jomo! There it is, there it is, let it go to the goals!

3

You played wonderfully, my beautiful Chiefs! You attacked wisely, you were careful, and you shared the ball. You played as a real team!

4

'High Five! Give yourselves a hand!' says the coach.

5

Oh! We are tired, but it was good to prepare ourselves. When is the match, Coach?

6

The day came that we were waiting for. The coach brought us the kit. Halala Chiefs, halala! It's going to be a good game. The cup is ours!

7

Our kit is so beautiful! Thank you, coach! You are a wonderful coach!
