Kudala zingakabi khona izinkundla zokuxhumana abagqugquzeli bamaqembu ebhola bebethembele kakhulu eziteshini zomsakazo ukuze bamakethe imidlalo.
U-Alex Shakoane oshone ngemuva kokuhlaselwa isifo sohlangothi ngeSonto ebusuku, ubengumpetha ekutholeni ukwesekwa uma njalo iqembu lakhe leMamelodi Sundowns lizobhekana neKaizer Chiefs noma i-Orlando Pirates.
Lo wesilisa obedume ngelikaMr Gold Fingers ngenxa yokuthi wayehlale efake izindandatho zegolide ezicwebezelayo, ubeqinisekisa ukuthi ukulangazelele ukubuka umdlalo.
Wayehlezi ezishaya isifuba ngokuthi iqembu lakhe lizilungiselele ukubhekana nezimbangi zalo. Ukuxabana kwakhe nomphathi weChiefs uLouis Tshakoane bekuyinto eyaziwayo. Babebhekana bukhoma kumabonakude ngaphambi komdlalo.
Ezinye zezitatimende ezikhumbulekayo uShakoane azisho ngaphambi komdlalo wePirates ngasekuqaleni kweminyaka yango-2000 ukuthi, “IPhalamende lizovalwa ngoMsombuluko.” Wayekusho lokhu ngoba amalungu ePhalamende amaningi angabalandeli bePirates futhi ngeke babe nesibindi sokuya emsebenzini ngakusasa.
Uzalelwe eMamelodi eminyakeni engu-67 edlule, uShakoane wayengumdlali weSundowns. Nangemuva kokuxoshwa yiqembu ngenxa yezinsolo zokudlwengula ngo-2008, wabuyela eqenjini elifanayo. Eminyakeni yokwakhiwa kweSundowns ngeminyaka yango-1970, uShakoane wayeyingxenye yayo futhi wasiza ukukhulisa abalandeli bayo.
Esitatimendeni, isikhulu seSundowns uTlhopie Motsepe ushayele ihlombe lesi sikhulu.
“Umndeni wakwaMotsepe, iBhodi, abalandeli kanye nawo wonke amalungu eMamelodi Sundowns agqemeke ingozi futhi aphatheke kabi ngokudlula emhlabeni kuka-Alex “Goldfinger” Shakoane obethandwa yiwo wonke umuntu. Impilo kaBra Alex ibimayelana neMamelodi Sundowns futhi sizowakhumbula amagalelo akhe ayingqayizivele kanye nobuntu bakhe.”
Imininingwane yenkonzo yesikhumbuzo neyomngcwabo izomenyezelwa maduze.
