A first half beauty from Gaston Sirino set the tone and two second half strikes from Inacio Miguel and Pule Mmodi respectively underlined Amakhosi’s dominance over the 90 minutes.
Orlando Pirates on the otherhand, reached the last eight by beating Baroka 3-1 thanks to Tshegofatso Mabasa’s hat-trick.
After both teams reached Nedbank Cup quarters, some Chiefs fans took to social media to demand a rematch agaist their rivals Pirates. The two big teams met earlier this month with the Buccaneers claiming a 1-0 win following a late penalty. Many Khosi fans felt robbed and are eager to face their Soweto rivals once more.
