Khune, subsequently returned to the Chiefs starting line up and picked up three consecutive man of the match awards against Cape Town City, Maritzburg United and Golden Arrows respectively.

The Bafana number one beat off competition from Lerato Lamola from Golden Arrows, Cape Town City captain Robyn Johannes and Baroka’s Gift Motupa.
