Siyanda Xulu Scores On Both Ends In Kaizer Chiefs Debut

Siyanda Xulu Scores On Both Ends In Kaizer Chiefs Debut

Siyanda Xulu had a colourful debut for Kaizer Chiefs, scoring an own goal, before scoring what turned out to be the winning goal in extra time.

It was Xulu's first official appearance for Kaizer Chiefs, the club he was a junior at, before absconding to join Mamelodi Sundowns as a teenager.

Xulu returned to Chiefs last month after three years in Russia with FC Rostov.

It was Xulu's first official goal in over four years, having last scored in a PSL game against Ajax Cape Town in April 2011, whilst still a Sundowns player.

Xulu had an eventful debut in the 5-3 win over Maritzburg United - it didn't start well as he was part of a defence that conceded two first half goals, and he headed into his own net to bring Maritzburg back level at 3-3 after Chiefs had fought back brilliantly to lead 3-2.

However he scored the all important goal that gave Chiefs the lead, before Henrick Ekstein wrapped up the result which sees Chiefs into the MTN8 semi-finals.

Xulu also picked up a yellow card for his celebration of his goal.
