Man-of-the-match in SA earns more than entire BPL team

Monday, October 23, 2023 | 640 Views |

After 90 minutes of play, Mlungisi Mbunjana of TS Galaxy had earned more or less what three Botswana Premier League teams got for the entire season after he was chosen Man of the Match against Mamelodi Sundowns on Wednesday.

The award carries a R100,000 cash prize. Last season’s relegated sides, Extension Gunners, Mogoditshane Fighters and Prisons XI received P82,500 each for their sweat over 30 games.

Mbunjana and other players who emerged as men of the match during South Africa’s Carling Cup Black Label matches needed only 90 minutes to surpass the prize money given to Botswana’s teams in the top division.
