Kaizer Chiefs earned a vital three points away from home in their CAF Champions League preliminary round first leg clash against PWD Bamenda in Limbe, Cameroon.

Kaizer Chiefs found the going tough for much of the game with chances difficult to come by while Itumeleng Khune was definitely the busier of the two goalkeepers on the day.

The Amakhosi did eventually find some joy in the 83rd minute after Eric Mathoho scored the opener. ‘Tower’ made no mistake in finishing a Moleko cross to hand the visitors the lead with just over five minutes to play.

The hosts were given a glorious chance to level matters after Daniel Cardoso gave a penalty kick away in the 87th minute however Itumeleng Khune produced a heroic save down low to keep Kaizer Chiefs ahead.

The Amakhosi managed to see things out while earning a crucial away victory. The return leg will take place next weekend at the FNB Stadium with the Amakhosi holding a 1-0 advantage.
