As the Premier Soccer League (PSL) season unfolds, a watchful eye is on a group of six players who find themselves on thin ice, just one yellow card away from serving a mandatory one-match suspension.
These players, each accumulating three bookings in the league, walk a fine line between continued participation and suspension:
- Sifiso Hlanti (Kaizer Chiefs)
- Mgongeni Gumede (AmaZulu)
- Thshegofatso Mabasa (Swallows)
- Jayden Adams (Stellenbosch)
- Sibongiseni Mthethwa (Stellenbosch)
Their impending suspensions hang like a sword of Damocles over their heads, adding an element of suspense to their performances in the upcoming matches.
Suspensions Affecting the Upcoming Fixtures
In addition to the players teetering on the brink of suspension, there are others who won’t be taking the field in the forthcoming fixtures.
Notably, Musa Nyatama of Swallows and the Stellenbosch duo, Brendon Moloisana and Devin Titus, will have to watch this weekend’s action from the sidelines due to their suspensions.
