Sundowns Duo And Chiefs Star Win Monthly Awards

Mamelodi Sundowns duo Iqraam Rayners and coach Miguel Cardoso, along with Kaizer Chiefs attacker Mdu Shabalala, were recognized with November/December awards in the Betway Premiership.

Rayners claimed the Player of the Month award, while Cardoso, who joined the club earlier in December, secured the Coach of the Month award.

Shabalala’s stunning solo effort against Chippa United last month at the Moses Mabhida Stadium earned him the Goal of the Month award. He picked up the ball out wide, dribbled past four Chilli Boys defenders, and beat Nigerian goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali with a shot to the near post.

“Cardoso was voted Betway Premiership Coach of the Month for his impressive run with Mamelodi Sundowns, where they won three Betway Premiership matches against Stellenbosch FC, AmaZulu FC, and Richards Bay FC, collecting nine points in the process,” the PSL stated in a release.

“Iqraam Rayners was named Betway Premiership Player of the Month after narrowly edging out strong competition from Relebohile Mofokeng and Hendrick Ekstein.”

“The Betway Premiership Goal of the Month was awarded to Kaizer Chiefs midfielder, Mduduzi Shabalala, for his solo run and strike against Chippa United on December 29th in Durban.”

“Shabalala’s goal was voted the best ahead of strong competition from Thalente Mbatha and Relebohile Mofokeng’s goals against Marumo Gallants and Magesi FC, respectively.

“The Betway Premiership, proudly sponsored by Betway, continues to roll out a number of exciting fan engagement initiatives over the next few months, with a special focus on the Betway Premiership regional derbies,” the statement continued.

“Leading up to the Betway Premiership derbies, fans nationwide can expect to meet some of the league’s legends (the Betway Squad) as they visit various cities, where there will be direct engagement and exciting Betway prizes to be won.”

Pirates coach Jose Riveiro and Sundowns’ Lucas Ribeiro Costa were the inaugural recipients of the Coach and Player of the Month awards in September and October, while Fawaaz Basadien claimed the Goal of the Month award.
