Vaal young star scores on Belgium Pro League debut

He scored on his debut.

SEDIBENG.- Bafana Bafana and Vaal young star Relebohile Mofokeng made another mark for his Belgian club, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

The Sharpeville-born soccer star fulfilled his Belgium Pro League dream when he scored on his debut.

Mofokeng came off the bench and, hardly four minutes after taking to the field, found the back of the net.

He scored Saint-Gilloise’s third goal in the 64th minute.

Saint-Gilloise started their league season with an impressive 5-1 victory over KVC Westerlo on Saturday.

This was another impressive performance from Mofokeng after coming off the bench.

Following his impressive display, Mofokeng is expected to start when his side travel to Norway for their UEFA Champions League third qualifying round play-off against Bodø/Glimt on Tuesday.

The two sides shared the spoils after playing to a 3-3 draw in the first leg.

Saint-Gilloise will rely on Mofokeng as they look to progress further in the competition.

It will not be an easy outing for Mofokeng and his teammates, considering that they will be playing away from home.

Mofokeng did not feature in the first leg and is expected to start on Tuesday.
