FORMER Caps United and Mamelodi Sundowns forward, Nyasha Mushekwi, marked his entry into the Belgian Jupiler league where he plays for KV Oostende in style after his 24th minute strike saw his side drawing 1-1 with Zulte Waregem.
The match, played on Sunday, saw KV Oostende picking up only their second point since the start of the 2013/14 league, which has not been a great one for Zimbabweans in Belgium.
"Mushekwi one game one goal, I see him killing teams in Belgium well done countryman the sky is the limit we want more goals," said Ovidy Karuru who is also in Belgium at OH Leuven on his congratulatory post on Facebook.
Mushekwi's team are 15th on the standings and anchoring the table is Mons, a team home to another Zimbabwean Vusa Nyoni. While the former Highlanders and AmaZulu midfielder has been enjoying some game time, the team has performed badly and this past weekend they went down 0-2 to Standard Liege. Nyoni was taken out in the 59th minute for Richard Soumar.
In the Czech Liga in Czech Republic, former AmaZulu strongman Costa Nhamoinesu's Sparta Praha crashed visiting Pribram 4-0 to stay level on points with log leaders Viktoria Plzen but second due to an inferior goal difference.
In Denmark, former Motor Action forward Quincy Antipas' Brondby side drew 0-0 with Rainders. In South Africa, Tinashe Nengomasha, Thomas Sweswe, Kingstone Nkhata, Knowledge Musona, Benjani Mwaruwari and Willard Katsande are all in danger of seeing their sides crashing out of the lucrative MTN8 Cup following first leg losses over the weekend.
The trio of Nkhata, Musona and Katsande were part of the Kaizer Chiefs line-up that lost 0-1 to arch rivals Orlando Pirates while Sweswe, Mwaruwari and Nengomasha's Bidvets Wits side were hammered 4-2 by Platinum Stars.
In fact Nengomasha was to blame for the third goal as Dikwena went on a rampage.
