Bohloko becomes youngest player to score in Diski Challenge

Neo Bohloko became the youngest player to ever score a goal in the DStv Diski Challenge.

The 14-year-old was introduced in the second half of the match between Kaizer Chiefs and Golden Arrows at Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Durban.

Chiefs were leading Arrows by 1-0 when he was introduced.

The promising midfielder made an instant change in the match, helping his side put pressure on Arrows' defence.

Towards the end of the match, Bohloko finished off what was a great team effort finding the back of the net in the 80th minute to help Chiefs best Arrows 2-0.

Mfundo Vilakazi had opened the scoreboard with a stunning free-kick at the stroke of halftime.

The victory means Amakhosi have completed a double over Arrows, whom they thumped 5-0 a week ago at Dobsonville Stadium.

Bohloko made his Diski Challenge debut on 8 January when Chiefs played against Stellenbosch FC.

Chiefs coach Vela Khumalo has been singing the praises of the youngster and this could just be the beginning for him.

Former SuperSport United striker Sthembiso Kurata previously was the youngest player to have scored in Diski Challenge at 15.
