Du Preez got his second and third DStv Premiership goals of the season against the Buccaneers, though Chiefs ended up losing.
'It’s an amazing feeling to be a part of the history of this big match and score a brace,' Du Preez told the Chiefs website.
Kaizer Chiefs striker Ashley Du Preez was delighted to score a Soweto derby brace against Orlando Pirates on Saturday, though he was obviously less eneamoured to end up on the losing side. Du Preez was injured in October, returning to action for the final game of last year. In games against Milford FC in the Nedbank Cup and Moroka Swallows in the league Du Preez missed fantastic opportunities, and he was dropped from the starting line-up for Pirates’ 1-0 win over Golden Arrows.The 26 year-old returned against Pirates, however, and found his radar, with two well-taken first half goals.
