EX-KAIZER CHIEFS STARLET ADEN MCCARTHY ON THE SCORESHEET IN UCL DEFEAT

McCarthy moved from Kaizer Chiefs to Sabah FK before the start of the current campaign.

And since then, he has never looked back despite being alone at his age in a foreign country.

On Tuesday, McCarthy opened his goalscoring account for Sabah, and it came in the UEFA Champions League.

The 22-year-old was named in the starting line-up against Dortmund, and he restored parity with a header in the 39th minute.

This after Guinea international striker Serhou Guirassy had given Dortmund an early lead in the ninth minute of the first half.

However, the German giants came back stronger in the second half, and Guirassy completed his brace in the 53rd minute.

In the end, Dortmund walked away with a 2-1 win over McCarthy‘s Sabah to move up to 11th on the log.

Sabah are currently 25th on the UEFA Champions League standings but still in with a chance although they will need to work a little bit harder to advance.

What’s more special is that McCarthy scored his first Sabah goal, in the Champions League, in front of his parents.

His dad, Fabian, and mom Melissa were at Baku Olympic Stadium to watch their son in action against Dortmund.

Paul de Villiers leads Stormers again in URC match against Scarlets

· Citizen

Rising loose forward star Paul de Villiers will captain the Stormers for the second time when they welcome Wesh side Llanelli Scarlets to the Cape Town Stadium for their United Rugby Championship (URC) encounter on Saturday afternoon.

The Springbok flank stepped up last week when regular captain Ruhan Nel was a late injury withdrawal from the squad for their Champions Cup clash with Bristol Bears, and he will now continue in that role with Nel being rested as a precaution.

De Villiers is joined by fellow former Junior Springbok captains Riley Norton, Zachary Porthen and Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu in a match 23 which features an exciting blend of youth and experience.

Markus Muller makes his first start for the Stormers at inside centre and is joined in midfield by Wandisile Simelane, who stepped in for Nel and put in a strong performance against Bristol.

Warrick Gelant starts at fullback and Haashim Pead makes his first start at scrumhalf in the two other changes to the backline. Cobus Reinach and Yaqeen Ahmed are set to be unleashed from the replacements bench in the second half.

Dayimani back

In the loose trio Hacjivah Dayimani makes his return at the back of the scrum, having missed out last week due to concussion, which sees Evan Roos shift to blindside flank.

There is an all-new lock pairing as Norton and Connor Evans start this week, with JD Schickerling and Adré Smith set to feature after half-time.

The all-Springbok front row of Porthen, André-Hugo Venter and Ntuthuko Mchunu is backed up by Olly Reid, Lukhanyo Vokozela and Neethling Fouché.

Director of Rugby John Dobson said that this will be an exciting team to watch as they look to continue their unbeaten run against the Scarlets.

“We have four players in Markus Muller, Riley Norton, Olly Reid and Yaqeen Ahmed who are young enough to be playing for the Stormers Bolts, along with the likes of Deon Fourie who is the second most-capped player of all time for this club.

“There are some really dynamic combinations both in the starting line-up and the replacements bench and they will all be tested against a Scarlets team that has made an impressive start to the season.

“We have enjoyed some great support this month and everyone is looking forward to an electric atmosphere at DHL Stadium once again.”

Stormers starting XV

Warrick Gelant, Seabelo Senatla, Wandisile Simelane, Markus Muller, Leolin Zas, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, Haashim Pead, Hacjivah Dayimani, Evan Roos, Paul de Villiers (c), Connor Evans, Riley Norton, Zachary Porthen, André-Hugo Venter, Ntuthuko Mchunu
