Midfielders hardly get the recognition they deserve as eyes are always on those who score goals. Will it be the case with this year's PSL awards?
The Premier Soccer League earlier this week announced the nominees for the Midfielder of the Season award.
Mamelodi Sundowns captain Hlompho Kekana, his teammate Themba Zwane and Thembinkosi Lorch of Orlando Pirates all made the cut in the category.
The trio didn't play the same number of matches, while only two - Kekana and Zwane - helped Sundowns win the league title, beating Lorch's Pirates to the coveted trophy.
