Musona Scoops Player Of The Month Award

KNOWLEDGE SCOOPS THE PLAYER OF THE MONTH AWARD

Johannesburg- Orlando Pirates coach Ruud Krol and Knowledge Musona of Kaizer Chiefs have emerged as the two big winners as the respective Absa Premiership Coach of the Month and Absa Premiership Player of the month for the December and January period.

The announcement was made at the Premier Soccer League offices in Parktown.

Knowledge Musona got the nod as the Absa Premiership Player of the month after scoring some crucial goals for Amakosi during the voting period. His efforts in front of goal have kept Chiefs in the title race and he has shown a knack of scoring crucial goals when it matters. He most notably rescued a point for Chiefs in Bloemfontein when a goal in injury time gave them a share of the spoils. His goal ratio in December was equally impressive and he kept on scoring vital goals.

“He is a true predator in front of goal, but he has also set up a number of goals for his teammates. He has become a real team player and that should be truly celebrated”, said one of the judging panel.

But it was a close run affair: Lehlohonolo Majoro of Amazulu was equally impressive as he plundered some crucial goals during the judging period while Thulani Serrero of Ajax Cape Town was at the heart of the Urban Warriors charge towards the top of the league table.

Steward Masela, Absa Sponsorship Manager, congratulated the respective winners. “Well done to everyone. The current Absa Premiership season has turned out to be one of the most exciting ever and we have seen some extraordinary performances. This only adds to what I am sure will be an exciting end to the season”

Premier Soccer League CEO, Kjetil Siem, also added his congratulations.

“I’ve been impressed by the quality of football and individual performances that we have seen up until now in the Absa Premiership. The monthly winners are certainly doing the League, their clubs as well as themselves proud and I must thank Absa for providing exciting incentives,” said the Norwegian.

At this rate the young Zimbabwean will a bigger room to keep all his awards!
