Former Orlando Pirates striker Kwame Peprah continued to dazzle as his team, Svay Rieng, secured a comfortable 3-0 victory over Ezra in the AFC Challenge League on Wednesday.

The 24-year-old center-forward provided an assist in the emphatic win that saw the Cambodian Premier League outfit maintain their spot at the summit of Group D standings.

Meanwhile, for Peprah, he has now scored 12 goals and set-up a further four strikes in 11 appearances across all competitions.

The former Ghana under-23 international sealed a move to Cambodia this year in July, with his deal set to expire in May 2026.

This comes after an exit at Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters, whom he joined after departing Israeli outfit Hapoel Hadera following a difficult spell in South Africa.

While he won the MTN8 title with Pirates, he failed to establish himself as a starter in the team, prompting a loan spell to Maritzburg United (now Durban City).

Overall, he featured 44 times for the Buccaneers, chipping in with nine goals and a solitary assist during his stay at the club.
