💨 Abstract

Former Orlando Pirates striker Thulasizwe "Juju" Mbuyane revealed that his iconic "east and west" goal celebration was a tribute to his hometown, Mamelodi, Tshwane. Despite growing up near Mamelodi Sundowns' stadium, he never played for them, often playing barefoot due to financial constraints. Mbuyane scored 22 goals in 116 appearances for Pirates, helping the club win multiple titles.
