Billy Veremu: The Humble Hitman Fueling MWOS FC’s Fairytale Season
While MWOS FC’s remarkable debut PSL campaign has been built on collective strength, one man has emerged as their undisputed talisman: Billy Veremu. The red-hot striker finished the first half of the season with a staggering 10 goals and 15 goal contributions in 17 games, cementing his status as one of the league’s most lethal marksmen.
Yet true to his unselfish nature, Veremu was quick to deflect praise after yesterday’s 3-1 defeat to Ngezi Platinum – MWOS’ first loss this season. “I only score goals, I don’t defend,” he humbly stated. “Those who defend are equally important. This is a team effort.”
His words encapsulate the “Punters Spirit” that has seen the newcomers amass 32 points from 17 games – a return that defies all pre-season expectations. Whether threading decisive passes or poaching in the box, Veremu’s clinical edge has been instrumental in MWOS’ fairytale rise.
Despite the Ngezi setback – where Veremu still managed to nod home a consolation – the mood remains bullish. “We’ll build from this,” declared the striker, reflecting the squad’s resilience. With coaches and executives fostering a united front, MWOS are primed for a thrilling push in the season’s second stanza.
