The Baroka FC goalkeeper, Oscarine Masuluke, has become an instant world football sensation following his outstanding goal against Orlando Pirates last night.


Masuluke announced himself to the big league during the preseason when he saved three penalty kicks against Kaizer Chiefs in a friendly match.

Last night the newly promoted Baroka were on the verge of being beaten 1-0 by Pirates at the Peter Mokaba Stadium.

The home side has a last second corner kick which saw the keeper moving up into the goal box in an attempt to find the equaliser.

The ball bounced perfectly for Masuluke who then performed a perfectly executed bicycle-kick to beat the opposing goalkeeper and two defenders.

The video of the shot-stopper's goal has gone viral on the social media and even enjoyed shares by the English Premiership.

Masuluke has since admitted that he played striker as junior and last night’s goal is by far his most memorable.
