Mayambela, Kurt hit net in Europe
Tau’s side loses as Shabba gets a run
South Africans were among the goal-scorers in Europe this weekend as Siphiwe Tshabalala also made his debut in Turkey.
Young striker Kurt Abrahams scored his first goal for Belgian second-tier side Westerlo as they romped to a 3-1 away win at OH Leuven.
It is a positive start for the 21year-old since his move from top-flight Sint Truiden.
There was also a maiden goal in Portugal for Mihlali Mayambela‚ who netted for his new side Farense in their 2-1 defeat at Leixões.
Tshabalala came off the bench for new Turkish side Erzurumspor‚ but could not help them avoid a 1-0 home defeat to Istanbul Basaksehir that leaves his new club rooted to the foot of the table.
Percy Tau played for his Belgian second-tier side Royale Union St Gilloise as they lost 1-0 at Beerschot-Wilrijk in what is a disappointing result for them after successive victories.
Kamohelo Mokotjo came off the bench for Brentford in their 2-1 home win over Norwich City to continue their good start to the new English Championship season. Keagan Dolly played the final few minutes for Ligue 1 Montpellier as they won 1-0 at Reims.
Kermit Erasmus (Vitória Setúbal‚ Portugal) and May Mahlangu (Ludogorets Razgrad‚ Bulgaria) have yet to debut for their new clubs‚ while Dino Ndlovu was missing for his Chinese club and Joel Untersee not in the match day squad for Empoli in Serie A.
