Kaizer Chiefs winger Asanele Velebayi has vowed to continue improving in order to aid the team by scoring regularly after grabbing his first goal for the club.
The 23-year-old is in his second season with the Glamour Boys after joining from Cape Town Spurs last term.
He has so far featured in 21 outings across all competitions with a goal and an assist since, though most of this has been as a substitute.
Velebayi netted the all-important winning goal as Amakhosi rallied from a goal down to beat Siwelele FC 2-1 and book a Carling Knockout Cup semi-final berth.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Velebayi expressed being ecstatic at finally breaking his duck for the club and looks forward to contributing toward the team’s success.
“Scoring my first goal means a lot, especially that it was a goal that won the match and takes us into the next round,” he said.
“I aim to help the team by improving my all-round game and scoring more goals when I get the chance.
“It was a game of transition. There were a lot of turnovers in possession. In truth, we should have wrapped up the game by half-time, and we are working hard to be more clinical in front of goal.”
Chiefs take on Mamelodi Sundowns in the semis while the other tie will be battled by Stellenbosch FC and Orlando Pirates.
