Ashley du Preez came off the bench to give Kaizer Chiefs their eighth victory in the Betway Premiership in 2025-25, the goal helping Amakhosi beat rookies Magesi FC 1-0 at FNB Stadium on Tuesday night.

Before Du Preez entered the fray Chiefs had huffed and puffed and looked on their way to another disappointing draw against the relegation-fighting Limpopo side. But after a snappy exchange of passes Du Preez scored his third league goal of the season in the 69th minute after receiving a good square pass from new wing signing Glody Lilepo.
