Cape Town Spurs head coach Shaun Bartlett has once again hailed Orlando Pirates loanee Boitumelo Radiopane describing him as a future Bafana Bafana star.
Radiopane scored a scotcher of a goal to give Spurs the much needed 3-2 win against Baroka in Lebowakgomo on Wednesday.

It was the fifth goal of the season for Radiopane who was a handful to watch for the Bakgaga defense.

Because the ability is always there and that’s important and also to stay humble in order to achieve success. Hopefully he will also do well for this country in the near future,” said Bartlett after the match.
“Again, these are basic things that we keep showing them week in and week out. How to move, off the ball and with throw-ins and setplays.
CAPE TOWN SPURS FULLY FOCUSED ON THE PRIZE

“For us it’s important to focus on ourselves and not worry about what Polokwane or Casric do. We have to make sure we also win our games because we can’t allow other teams to drop points and we don’t win our games.
“So we have to make sure we focus on our things and the same thing is going to happen on Saturday against Hungry Lions.”
