THAT’S why he is the league’s best paid player and its best player.
Khama Billliat is also a huge threat and a major draw-card as evidenced by some high-profile football personalities who thronged Heart Stadium yesterday. The 33-year-old did not disappoint as he scored his fourth goal of the season to rescue a point for Yadah.
With FC Platinum seemingly heading for a crucial win, after Juan Mutudza had scored in the 77th minute, Billiat turned on the magic right at the death.
He expertly struck the ball from outside the box to level matters and deny FC Platinum their third win on the bounce.
The result means Yadah have now not lost against FC Platinum in the league in their last three meetings.
“We ended up giving the ball away and the second ball they scored but the boys worked so hard.
“I can’t take anything away from the boys,” said FC Platinum coach Norman Mapeza.
Panashe Mutimbanyoka hit the post in the first half for FC Platinum.
Nine minutes after the restart, Billiat once again displayed his brilliance, hooking the ball beyond the defender before threading a fine through ball for Evans Rusike, who blasted the ball wide.
“My boys played well but we conceded a soft goal,” said Yadah coach Thomas Ruzive.
“We are progressing very well, last week we beat Arenel Movers and today we have held the champions.”
