After it took 15 months for Kaizer Chiefs to snatch a win after going behind, following victory over Stellenbosch, Soccer Laduma highlights Chiefs' previous five comebacks.

Chiefs, based on their form, rescued an improbable victory from behind in a 2-1 victory over Stellenbosch in midweek.

After Bradley Cross made a costly mistake trying to play from the back, Amakhosi were punished by Khomotjo Lekoloane, as the Cape Winelands outfit took an early lead.

However, a brace by Wandile Duba, with the winner coming in the second stanza, could have developed character among the Glamour Boys players, as they spent one year and three months since they won a game coming from behind.

The last time Chiefs won a game after a going a goal down was in September 2023 against Sekhukhune United in a 2-1 victory in the league. 

Elias Mokwana broke the deadlock for Sekhukhune on the stroke of half-time but Edson Castillo and Edmilson Dove got late goals for Amakhosi.  

In the same year the Glamour Boys also knocked Cape Town City out of the MTN8 in the quarter-finals, with a 2-1 win after initially going a goal down.

The Soweto giants also reached the quarter-finals of the Nedbank Cup at the expense of Royal AM in 2023, as they came from a goal down to win 2-1 courtesy of an extra-time winner by Yusuf Maart. 

A year prior, Chiefs also turned the game around against Stellies in the strange league game where former striker Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana scored a hat-trick from penalty kicks in a 3-1 win after Amakhosi initially went a goal down after Nhlanhla Mgaga had opened the scoring.

In the same year, Bimenyimana's brace also rescued a win from behind for Chiefs in a 2-1 victory against SuperSport United, after Grant Margeman had given Matsatsantsa an early lead.
