One of the most popular Absa Premiership products, the Goal of the Month is back and football lovers can once more choose their favourite goal each month in the lead up to the #PSLAwards 2017.

Ten goals have already been uploaded on the Premier Soccer League website www.psl.co.za, and football fans are urged to vote for their favourite goal for the joint month of August and September.

Introduced for the first time last season, the award saw the decision being taken away from the panel of judges and given to football supporters in deciding the winner for the Absa Premiership Goal of the Season. Siphiwe Tshabalala of Kaizer Chiefs was the first recipient of the award last season.

Speaking at the launch, Mtunzi Jonas, head of sponsorships at Absa said, “We are continuing with our strategy of allowing South Africans to do football, just better by voting for their Goal of the Month and ultimately the Absa Premiership Goal of the Season later on in the season.”

There has been plenty of superb premiership goals scored during the start of the league, back from the opening weekend of the season in August and in September and fans can choose the winner from the shortlist of 10 best strikes.

Each of the goals selected during the monthly voting will go towards the list of goals that will be voted for the Absa Premiership Goal of the Season at the end of the season and stand a chance to win many prizes including a jersey of their favourite PSL club.

To kick-off the Goal of the Month campaign, here’s the list of the top 10 goals from August and September, which have been uploaded on www.psl.co.za for voting:

• Themba Zwane (Mamelodi Sundowns) v SuperSport United
