Orlando Pirates registered their second successive victory in the Soweto Derby after defeating bitter rivals Kaizer Chiefs 2-1 at the FNB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The victory follows the 3-1 win Bucs secured against Amakhosi at the same venue seven months ago.

Pirates who are now 10 games without defeat in the derby, still lie second on the log table with nineteen points.

Playing in his first Soweto Derby, Khama Billiat gave Chiefs an early lead.

Pirates were awarded a penalty midway through the first half, but Zambian Justin Shonga was denied by Itumeleng Khune.

But Pirates found the equaliser a few minutes later through Innocent Maela.

The winner for Pirates was scored by Vincent Pule who was also playing in his first Soweto derby, a few minutes later.
