It’s unusual at least. Isac de Carvalho, top scorer of Moçambola-2022, with 11 goals scored by Ferroviário de Nampula, decided to buy his own trophy. The Mozambican international used his Facebook page to express his displeasure at not receiving the trophy at the end of the competition, and left the following message:
“It may seem unusual, but today I went out into the street and went to buy the top scorer trophy in Moçambola 2022, out of my own pocket. I decided to reward myself. I think the adage “If you don’t do it yourself, no one else will do it for you” fits perfectly. It’s not just about the money, life isn’t either, there are small gestures and details that make all the difference. For example, it is important for me, when I retire, to show my children, nephews, and so on. My little (symbolic) conquests. And this, which can be legitimately presented to me, are the regulatory bodies of our sport. And they just didn’t, not even a simple congratulatory message. But anyway, life goes on, and I am grateful to God and everyone who directly or indirectly helped in the process of achieving this achievement that was not legally deserving of the award. But this will not affect the way I live and live football, I am stronger than ever, ”he said.
Isaac Carvalho, who was coached in the season that ended last Sunday by the Portuguese Nelson Santos (left the Locomotives), reached the top scorer for the second time after scoring 13 in 2014 in the service of Maxacin.
It should be noted that the Moçambicana Football League (LMF), the administrative entity of Moçambola, has set a maximum of 15 goals to be awarded to Moçambola’s top scorers.
