Bradley Grobler inched closer to the PSL veterans’ record after scoring for SuperSport United in the 3-1 win over Sekhukhune United on Friday.

The towering Grobler has now scored against 23 different teams in the PSL history, following his latest strike at Lucas Moripe Stadium.

TICO-TICO, MAYO

Grobler is now one goal away from matching the feat of Manuel ‘Tico-Tico’ Bucuane and Patrick Mayo, according to OptaJabu.

The Jomo Cosmos legend Tico-Tico and former Chiefs striker Mayo hold a joint record of having scored against 24 teams in the PSL history.

“This was Bradley Grobler’s first goal against Sekhukhune United, the 23rd different PSL side he’s scored against. In PSL top-flight history, only Patrick Mayo & Tico-Tico Bucuane (both 24) have scored against more different opponents. Collection. #DSTVPrem,” @OptaJabu tweeted.

The 34-year-old SuperSport striker had, going into the DStv Premiership game, not scored against Sekhukhune.

Grobler was joined on the scoresheet by Thatayaone Ditlhokwe and Thamsanqa Gabuza at Lucas Moripe Stadium.

REACTION

Grobler has since said he is interested in learning the team he is yet to score against so far.

“Interesting stat. So, who in the league currently haven’t I scored against,” he said.

Grobler has now scored five goals and provided an assist in 11 games across all competitions for SuperSport this season.  

The former Bafana Bafana striker is now into his seventh season with SuperSport.

Overall, he is into his 15th season in the top-flight after having played for Ajax Cape Town and Platinum Stars.

Grobler has now scored 72 times in 229 games for the Gavin Hunt side since joining them in the 2015/16 season.

SuperSport have since climbed up to third place with 17 points from 10 games at par on points with Richards Bay.

Serial winners Mamelodi Sundowns still lead the log table won 19 points from nine games going into this weekend’s games.
