Shalulile aims to hone goal-scoring prowess as Namibia gears up against Bafana Bafana
Namibian football sensation and Mamelodi Sundowns striker, Peter Shalulile, is poised to intensify his goal-scoring capabilities in an effort to propel Namibia to success against Bafana Bafana in their upcoming African Cup of Nations (Afcon) clash.
Following Namibia’s historic victory over Tunisia in their Afcon opener, secured by a goal from Deon Hotto of Orlando Pirates, Shalulile, the Brave Warriors’ captain, is determined to elevate his performance further as they face South Africa on Sunday.
Expressing a commitment to refining his finishing skills, Shalulile, a two-time consecutive Golden Boot Award winner in the DStv Premiership, acknowledges the responsibility that comes with captaining the team and seeks to capitalize on the chances that come his way.
Despite leading his team to their maiden Afcon triumph with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Tunisia, Shalulile remains self-critical, emphasizing his determination to contribute significantly against Bafana Bafana.
Shalulile, who finished as the joint top goalscorer in the previous PSL DStv Premiership season, recognizes the pressure on South Africa after their 2-0 defeat to Mali.
He is keen to exploit any vulnerabilities and aims to make a considerable impact on the upcoming match.
Reflecting on missed opportunities in the previous game, Shalulile vows to frustrate Bafana Bafana and acknowledges the challenge of being a captain, expressing gratitude for the grace bestowed upon him in leading the team.
In preparation for the clash, Shalulile asserts his dedication to working on his finishing, emphasizing his role as a striker and the importance of scoring goals.
As Namibia basks in the glory of their historic win, Shalulile remains focused on the next challenge, poised to deliver a stellar performance on the pitch.
