Bafana Bafana legend Siphiwe Shabba Tshabalala has narrated how scoring the first goal of Africas maiden World Cup and last to date, on home soil back in 2010, didnt singlehandedly build his brand.
It the first goal of the 2010 World Cup earned me respect and honour at the global stage, but honestly speaking, I also didnt rest on my laurels. I worked on myself, I worked very hard behind the scenes as well to make sure that I still maintain the brand, Tshabalala said.
Shabba insisted that the 2010 World Cups opening goal didnt solely make him appeal to corporates for partnerships. The former Kaizer Chief star has partnered with several prominent brands throughout his career, including Nike, ProNutro and Shield among others. Shabba is currently an ambassador for Betway.
