Brockie breaks drought

-

A ‘‘relieved’’ Jeremy Brockie is hoping to rediscover his goal-scoring form after scoring his first goal in 378 days. The 31-year-old All Whites striker finally scored for Mamelodi Sundowns in a 3-1 win over Free State Stars in South Africa yesterday. It was a typical Brockie finish – drilling a spectacula­r left-footed volley past the goalkeeper in the 11th minute. ‘‘It’s a massive weight off my shoulders,’’ Brockie told Stuff. ‘‘The longer you go without scoring especially when you’re at a new club it makes life difficult but now I can look forward.’’
