Hunt vs Mngqithi: Durban rivalry ignites as Arrows host Durban City
The Mercury
|August 18, 2025
THE Betway Premiership spotlight turns to Chatsworth tomorrow as Golden Arrows host newly promoted Durban City in a clash that promises intensity, drama, and tactical intrigue.
Central to the storyline is the renewed rivalry between two of South Africa’s most respected coaches: Gavin Hunt and Manqoba Mngqithi.
Hunt, in his first season with Durban City, has hit the ground running.
The veteran tactician has guided the newcomers to back-to-back wins to open their campaign, signaling that the club is no longer content with merely surviving in the top flight.
Hunt’ structured approach and tactical acumen have been instrumental in giving Durban City an immediate competitive edge.
Across the pitch, Mngqithi’s Golden Arrows have experienced mixed fortunes. After a disappointing loss to Siwelele FC, Arrows bounced back with a tough win over fellow KZN side Richards Bay last Tuesday.
