Wandile Duba scored a hat-trick for Kaizer Chiefs against TS Galaxy in the Carling Knockout on Tuesday. It was his first senior hat-trick and ended Chiefs' wait for another treble since October 2022.
Three goals in 18 minutes
Duba scored all three goals in an 18-minute spell, accounting for every Chiefs goal in the match.
First Chiefs hat-trick since October 2022
Duba's treble ended a run stretching back to Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana's hat-trick against Stellenbosch FC in October 2022.
Club and competition milestones
Duba's hat-trick was the ninth by a Kaizer Chiefs player since the 2007/08 season. He also became the 20th player to manage a hat-trick for Chiefs in the PSL era, with the club's total in that period moving to 26.
It was also the first hat-trick for Chiefs in this knockout competition since Marks Maponyane scored three goals against Rangers in the BP Top 8 final in 1987. Former Amakhosi striker Pollen Ndlanya recorded four trebles for the club, the most by a Chiefs player in the PSL era.
