SUNDAY TALES OF GOALS (PSL) The Norton Times The race to finish as the May Top Goalscorer in the Premier Soccer League is going to the wire in Week 14! Remember that it is also the week that the PSL gets to witness, for the first time, what the Northern Region Soccer League (NRSL) witnessed twice last season: the MWOSCOT series! Top-flight newcomers MWOS and Scottland, who created a fierce rivalry in the second-tier last season, have taken their beef to a higher level this time. And Matchday 14 at Norton’s Ngoni Stadium is expected to be huge. In that match, Billy Veremu will be the man Scottland’s defence will be wary of most, by goalscoring form. Veremu leads the chart for May, on five goals, and is second on the season chart on eight, one behind Washington Navaya. The PSL is not awarding anything for monthly top goalscorer, but seem to be using that as a basis for their Player of the Month award. TelOne’s Washington Navaya has bagged the award twice so far, in March and April, coincidentally the same months he finished top of the monthly scoring charts. He top-scored in March, with four goals, and was joint top in April, with three. Also on three goals last month were Isaskar Gurirab (Simba Bhora), Charles Teguru (Manica Diamonds), Thandolwenkosi Ngwenya (FC Platinum) and Charles Munyanyi (ZPC Kariba). If the scoreboard is the criteria, Veremu’s scoring run this month puts him in good stead to be crowned Player of the Month, and receive the fat May cheque. He faces some competition though. Currently second on the May goals chart is Brighton Makopa of Chicken Inn, who is a goal behind. Veremu, and The Punters faithful, may be tempted to write him off as he has only scored in one match this month, getting all four against Kwekwe United. Veremu is on a three-match scoring run, a goal each against TelOne and Greenfuel sandwiching a hattrick against Kwekwe United. The rest of the chasing pack, those currently on two goals or more this month, would have to score hattricks to catch up with Veremu, provided he does not score against Scottland. ZPC Kariba’s Fanuel Shoko leads that pack with three goals, while all others have two. These are Michael Tapera (Scottland), Donald Mudadi (Simba Bhora), Dickens Sibanda (Triangle), Mbongeni Minezhi (Kwekwe United), Washington Navaya (TelOne) and Reason Sibanda (Highlanders). ===≈======≈============== *NEVER MISS THE NORTON TIMES* *WhatsApp Group:* https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHjK0wO6DjTG6UUMpSWIfl *The Norton Times WhatsApp Channel:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaWwep4AYlUKctykGV0J *TNT Global WhatsApp Channel:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaJ2hRuAu3aToW9cav2g *Facebook Page* https://www.facebook.com/thenortontimes?mibextid=ZbWKwL *TNT on X:* https://x.com/mayortoo3?t=K7lUPcXBvwEL2nr_Kij5g&s=09 *YouTube Channel:* https://www.youtube.com/@https://www.youtube.com/@thenortontimestv =================
