Kaizer Motaung Junior - Trivia

Trivia

He is the son of South African soccer legend and Kaizer Chiefs founder Kaizer Motaung. Kaizer Moutaung junior used to play for English giants Chelsea fc in the junior squad.

Motaung's goals overshadowed the higher profile players at Kaizer Chiefs this season and took 'Junior' out of the shadow of his illustrious father. Motaung's 12 goals have put him second in the standings for the 2006–07 Castle Premier Soccer League's Top Goal-scorer of the Year Award and on the periphery of selection to future Bafana Bafana squads. It has taken the former Under-23 international three seasons to break through to the highest level of the South African game. From his club debut in 2004, he just two starts in three full seasons – but in the 2006/07 campaign was suddenly elevated into the spotlight, where he quickly thrived. The quality of the 26-year-old Motaung's talent has made him an instant hero and also ended the doubts over his pedigree. It has also been a rare bright light in mediocre season for Amakhosi.

    The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
