Itching to make my mark – Moon
Itching to make my mark – Moon

“That was great,” Ryan Moon reflects on scoring his second goal for Bafana Bafana. The Kaizer Chiefs striker helped South Africa to a 1-0 win over Botswana in the second leg of the 2018 African Nations Championship (Chan) qualifier.

Bafana Bafana had already beaten the Zebras 2-0 in the first leg in Francistown, Botswana, with Moon scoring his first international goal in his first cap for South Africa.

The goal at the Moruleng Stadium on Saturday was a fine one. Sipho Mbule went past two opponents before cutting the ball back to the lanky striker, who finished neatly.

“We should have beaten them with a least four to five goals,” Moon reflects, “with me scoring a hat-trick. However, I am more than happy with my two goals in the two matches for Bafana Bafana.”

The 20-year-old attacker is looking forward to the 2017/2018 season. “I am excited,” Moon says, “now I am itching to make my mark for Kaizer Chiefs.”

The Carling Black Label Champion Cup is up on Saturday, 29 July 2017. The match between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will be played at FNB Stadium (kick-off is at 15:30).

“That’s something exiting to look forward to,” Moon points out, “I love it as well that the supporters choose the team. Let’s see if enough fans voted for me to get me in the starting line-up.”
