Peter Shalulile<\/a> scored his 100th top-flight goal for a PSL top-flight club this past weekend, with a brace against CR Belouizdad in the CAF Champions League quarter-finals. In doing so, he became the seventh player in PSL history to reach the landmark, joining Siya Nomvethe, Daniel Mudau, Mabhuti Khanyeza, Tico-Tico Bucuane, Collins Mbesuma and the latest inductee Bradley Grobler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2 – This is the first time in PSL history two players reach the 100-goal landmark in the same season.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nShalulile\u2019s goal record is frightening when compared to the efforts of the other six centurions. The 100th goal came in his 197th appearance (starts & subs), making him the fastest player to reach the landmark. This is his 8th season since joining Highlands Park, but only his 6th playing top-flight football. Only Daniel Mudau (seven PSL seasons) took less time to reach 100 goals. Of course, football didn\u2019t begin in 1996\/97 with the introduction of the PSL, and Mudau has more goals overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
172 – Overall, Daniel Mudau is the leading scorer at Sundowns with 172 goals (62 before the PSL era, 110 after the PSL era).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nShalulile has scored against every single opponent he\u2019s faced more than once except for Petro de Luanda. That\u2019s 28 different teams that he\u2019s scored against in Highlands Park or Sundowns colours. Kaizer Chiefs are his favourite local opponent, with seven goals scored against them in 11 appearances (2 at Highlands Park, 5 at Sundowns). On a continental level, Al Ahly (5) and CR Belouizdad (4) are the teams that fear him the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s no surprise that the majority of his goals have come in the league, but Shalulile has been an all-rounder in terms of competitions. His milestone goals are a testament to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His first top-flight goal came in the league (v Polokwane City), his 50th goal came in the MTN8 (v Kaizer Chiefs) and his 100th goal came in the CAF Champions League (v CR Belouizdad). There\u2019s every chance that he could get close or even break the all-time record for a PSL player in CAF competitions. Themba Zwane is the joint-top scorer for a PSL club in CAF (with Surprise Moriri on 15), but this season may prove too early. Yet, he\u2019ll still have more opportunities should he play for Sundowns next season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
