Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Two Lesotho Defence Force (LDF) Ladies strikers Nthabeleng Potsane and \u2018Maseriti Mohlolo are in a serious fight for the golden boot in the Women Super League (WSL). Both players have scored 22 and 19 goals respectively and with two games to go before the season ends, the award can go either way.<\/p>\n

Potsane has been leading the charts all season and has not stopped scoring but she is feeling the pressure from her own teammate who is also eying the coveted award.<\/p>\n

Their head coach Lengana Nkhethoa says he has been enjoying the competition between the two players and that he wants more players to fight for the award next season.<\/p>\n

Although the two players get along very well and help each on the field, Nkhethoa said their friendly competition for the golden boot has made them even work harder in training because nobody knows who is going to start the match.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey get along very well, even on the pitch they pass each other. Of course they both want to score but they can recognise when the other one is in a great position to score and pass each other,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted four of them competing for it (golden boot), it creates competition in the team and keeps everyone on their toes. When there is more than one player scoring, no one can relax and think I am going to play. Nobody knows who is playing,\u201d Nkhethoa said.<\/p>\n

The champions will take on their fierce rivals Kick4Life midday at Bambatha on Thursday and although they have won WSL title already, Nkhethoa has no plans to take it easy.<\/p>\n

He said the game between the two teams can never be a friendly and that both teams will come prepared to win. \u201cKick4Life are one of the teams we are fighting with, given the quality of players for both teams our games are never friendly. Even if there is nothing to play for, something always happens, it\u2019s always a good game,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
