Shikusho leads scoring chart
Tura Magic's striker Anna Shikusho is on a runaway path with goals in the 2018/19 NFA Skorpion Zinc Women Super League.
The Windhoek-born and raised goal poacher Anna Shikusho is leading the goal scoring chart with 17 goals as the first leg of the matches ended on Saturday.
The first round of the league started on 6 October and since then, the 23-year-old top goal scorer has used every opportunity to find the net, which has created a gap which will prove too hard to close if her form continues in the second leg.
Ignacia Haoses from Namib Daughters, as well as Lina Katuta from rival club Khomas NamPol, are trailing behind with eight and seven goals respectively.
“I have not reached my targeted goals yet. So in every match I play, I try to score as many goals as possible.”
Shikusho said she draws inspiration from many players and if given the chance would love to play for Barcelona FC.
Gure Shama, Magic's head coach described the player as one who has a lot of passion and drive coupled with ambition and hunger to succeed. “Often it is said that you have it or not, and Shikusho's fire comes to life on the football pitch.
“She is mentally tough and presents us with that 'either way will work' attitude. And that makes her a great asset to the team.
He also said that she has a coachable character. “As a player you need to be able to accept the feedback from coaches and teachers who are there to help you improve.
“Finally, she is self-motivated. She always wants to better herself by continuously learning and beating previous targets and this has been one of her secrets to success thus far,” Shama explained.
The top goal scorers club with 25 points is followed by Khomas NamPol who is breathing heavily down their necks with 23 points and in third is V-Power Angels with 22 points.
In fourth position is Galz & Goals with 16 points and Daughters is occupying the fifth slot with 13 points.
Ten teams namely: Right Way, Galz & Girls Football Academy, Nust Babes, Namib Daughters, Khomas NamPol, Omaheke Queens, Tura Magic, V-Power Angels, Unam Bokkies and Gals & Goals are competing in the league.
Final results of the weekend:
Nust Babes 0-2 Khomas NamPol
Right Way 4-0 Omaheke Queens
Galz & Goals 4-1 Namib Daughters
Tura Magic 8-0 Omaheke Queens
Unam Bokkies 0-4 Khomas NamPol
Right Way 0-2 V-Power Angels
