Africa-Press – Eswatini. This sums up the feat achieved by Sihlangu Semnikati striker Sabelo ‘Sikhali’ Ndzinisa, who has walked away with the 2022 Hollywoodbets COSAFA Cup Golden Boot award. The Mbabane Highlanders marksman is now E20 000 richer after finishing the tournament at the top of the goal-scorers chart with three goals in his name ahead of Lamine Camara (Senegal) and Kelvin Kampamba (Zambia) who were tied at two goals apiece.
Camara and Kampamba failed to find the back of the net in their countries’ last games against Mozambique and Namibia respectively during the 3th /4th place playoffs and finals respectively yesterday afternoon.
The former Mbombela United player is now the tournament second all-time top goal scorer with eight goals in the history charts behind the current top goal scorer and compatriot Felix ‘Fela’ Badenhorst with nine goals.
Ndzinisa could not be drawn for comment at the time of compiling this report. The nation’s pride’s run at the regional showpiece ended in the quarter-finals following their loss to guests Senegal 11-10 on penalties before losing out by 2-0 to Botswana during the Plate Cup semi-finals on Friday.
The Dominic Kunene-led side has further produced six ‘Man of the Match’ winners in Sandile ‘Saviola’ Gamedze (twice), Fanelo ‘Order’ Mamba (twice) together with Mzwandile Mabelesa and Sifiso Matse.
Worth noting , Zambia were crowned champions of the tournament after beating Namibia by 1-0 courtesy of Albert Kangwanda second half strike last night at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
