The news of Nyiko Nkwinika passing really come as a shock. What a great guy man, one of the nicest I met at UCT. Shared a corridor with him at res, always willing to have a chat. I won't forget how excited he was when I started coaching res football. Rest well Festival my dawg❤️

Struggled with this for the longest of time with my dad. He's a naturally quiet person, who would leave the house at 5am and come back at 6pm, tired AF. He couldn't even go watch me play sport on weekends because he was resting. But one thing, I knew how much that man loved us.

In 2012, he won the u20 world cup with the Junior Boks as the starting flyhalf. He was in Grade 12. No South African player has achieved that while still in high school. In fact, the only other time the Junior Boks have played a world cup final was when he was captain in 2014.

It stems from his football education, learnt from Wolfgang Frank (who learnt from Arrigo Sacchi). In his book, it is mentioned that when he started coaching, he would spent entire the day's session working on distances out of possession. That was almost unheard of in Bundesliga 2
Klopp compact deep blocks are actually impossible to penetrate. The way he shut down Man City in the 2017/18 UCL 2nd leg, home vs Man City last season and vs Spurs yday are the rare occasions you see it. He wants to entertain but he’s actually great at coaching a reactive shape.
