Fily Traoré of TP Mazembe continues to dominate the goal-scoring charts in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) championship, cementing his status as one of the league’s standout performers.
The TP Mazembe striker has been a prolific force throughout the season, finding the back of the net 16 times during the zonal phase, showcasing his clinical finishing and attacking prowess.
Despite a temporary goal drought during the playoffs, where Traoré has yet to register a goal in three matches, his impressive tally from the earlier phase of the season has firmly established him as the top scorer.
His consistency and ability to deliver when it matters most have been instrumental in TP Mazembe’s campaign.
While Traoré’s goal-scoring exploits have garnered significant attention, his teammates have also stepped up to contribute to the team’s success.
Joël Beya, also from TP Mazembe, made a notable impact by opening his goal account against Maniema Union, helping his team secure a crucial victory.
Beya’s goal takes his tally to 8 for the season, placing him third in the scoring charts behind Traoré and Lise Nyembo of Lubumbashi Sport, who has notched up 11 goals.
In addition to Traoré, other players vying for the golden boot include Horso Mwaku of FC Lupopo and Jephté Kitambala of Maniema Union, both with 8 goals to their names.
The competitive nature of the goal-scoring race underscores the talent and depth within the DRC Ligue 1.
As the season progresses, football enthusiasts eagerly anticipate whether Traoré will maintain his goal-scoring form and secure the coveted golden shoe award.
With the likes of Beya, Nyembo, and other contenders in pursuit, the battle for supremacy in the goal-scoring charts promises to be closely contested until the final whistle.
