He scored on Sunday when his St Louis City beat Bongokuhle Hlongwane‘s Minnesota United in the Major League Soccer.

WHICH FORMER KAIZER CHIEFS STAR BROKE THE GOAL DUCK

They beat Bihor Oradea away from home and Siyabonga Ngezana got his name on the score sheet after 69 minutes.

His goal sealed the win, as it doubled the scores following David Raul Miculescu’s first-half goal. Ngezana put up a decent shift to help FCSB maintain their rich vein of form.

Unlike, Njabulo Blom, Ngezana previously scored in his 95 appearances in the DStv Premiership.

According to transfermarkt, he scored six goals for the Naturena-based club before his transfer to FCSB.

Ngezana has shone in the Romanian Liga 1 and even his coach Elias Charalambous has lauded the South African defender.

NGEZANA CONTINUES TO SOAR AT FCSB

The 26-year-old endured a tough start to life in Romania after an off-season transfer from the Glamour Boys.

He, however, got his chance to player after an injury to former Tottenham Hotspur defender Vlad Chiriches.

After grabbing the opportunity, the towering defender has played four consecutive league matches, in which he has started three.

And FCSB has been in fine form as they sit comfortably at the summit of the Romanian Liga 1 table.

They are unbeaten in their last five games, with the 2-2 draw against AFC Hermannstadt on 21 September as their only blemish.
