Relebohile Mofokeng extended his extraordinary run of form with a goal and an assist as Orlando Pirates beat AmaZulu 3‑0 to return to the top of the Betway Premiership. The teenager set up Oswin Appollis before scoring a superb strike of his own, taking his league tally to ten for the season. It is a remarkable turnaround for a player who had neither a goal nor an assist by mid‑November and was struggling for minutes.
His first contribution came with a late assist at Golden Arrows, but since January he has been the most prolific player in South Africa, producing fifteen goal involvements in twelve matches. Overall, he now has seventeen contributions in eighteen league starts and twenty‑two appearances. His form arrives at the perfect moment as he pushes for a Bafana Bafana place at the 2026 World Cup, competing with Themba Zwane for the number ten role behind Lyle Foster.
