Sihlangu get goat gift for holding Eagles

Madlenya Football Club PRO Jonase Vilane has pledged a goat for the national team Sihlangu in appreciation of their great performance against Nigeria last Friday.
Vilane said he was impressed with the performance displayed by the team during the World Cup qualifiers clash played at the Somhlolo National Stadium which ended in a goalless draw.
Vilane first made the pledge on the popular radio Sport Show programme   aired on Friday morning on SBIS 1.
He said if Sihlangu would manage just a draw against the Super Eagles, he would give them a goat.
Sought for comment on his pledge on Sunday, the PRO said he would definitely keep his promise. He said he would wait for their return from Nigeria to present the goat.
“The boys surprised us. A lot of people had written them off saying they stood no chance against Nigeria but they proved them otherwise.
“I was very impressed by Sihlangu and if it happens that they play well in Nigeria, I will talk with my family and  do something even bigger for the boys,” he said.
This is not the first time Vilane has awarded Sihlangu for a good  performance as he did in the time of now Bafana Bafana team Ephraim Shakes Mashaba where he bought the team two goats, traditional regalia for the coach and also hosted them at Nisela Safaris.
