Lebokgang Lusiba, the number one goalkeeper for Selwane White Vultures, is proving that goalkeepers don’t just stop goals — they can score them too!
The shot-stopper has been ever-present in the Vultures’ league and tournament games this season, making it clear that he’s the club’s first-choice keeper. But what has local fans talking is his unusual ability to find the back of the net.
So far, Lusiba has netted three goals from penalty kicks — starting with one in the first round of the league, following it up with a strike against Dolphins, and most recently adding another against Vondwe XI Bullets last Wednesday. With that tally, he’s on course to be the top-scoring goalkeeper in the ABC Motsepe League — a rare achievement in South African football.
But it’s not just the goals that have people buzzing.
Lusiba commands his area like a seasoned pro, showing maturity and composure rarely seen in the league. He’s one of the few goalkeepers who doesn’t make silly mistakes, giving his team confidence from the back.
Fans and teammates rave about his calm presence, sharp reflexes, and leadership. He’s the kind of keeper who can keep a clean sheet and then step up to score a penalty that turns the game on its head.
If Selwane White Vultures continue their climb up the league standings, a lot of the credit will go to their versatile and talented number one — Lebokgang Lusiba, the keeper who can do it all.
