KELVIN Shangiwa was considered Scottland’s lucky charm.
The Premiership newboys just could not lose a match since he became their number one.
“I feel happy when I am adding some value to the team. Especially in a team like Scottland which is full of stars and big names,” Shangiwa told Zimpapers Sports Hub.
“It’s an amazing streak, five wins in a row and we are also challenging for the league title. Everything I do I always put God first.”
Shangiwa, who is based in Chitungwiza, says he has found the answer from a local clergyman who leads the Gomo Rema Answer Interdenominational congregation.
The church is home to a number of footballers including Herentals utility player Godfrey “Marabha” Mukambi.
“The good thing for me is I am now a firm believer in the power of God.
“Prophet Tinashe Siwela of Zengeza in Chitungwiza has taught me to be patient in life and wait for God’s time.
“He assured me my time would come and I would
play regularly.”
Shangiwa’s unbeaten run ended on Saturday when
Scottland lost 2-3 to Dynamos in the Game of the Season.
The big question now is that will he retain his jersey after conceding three goals?
Or, more importantly, will he still believe that he has some spiritual powers helping him and faith that his prophet is helping him navigate the challenges of the PSL?
We don’t have to wait very long.
The Scotts next match is against leaders Simba Bhora in Shamva.
