Bafana Bafana captain and Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper Ronwen Williams reaped big in the 2024 Caf Awards Gala held on Monday.
The 32-year-old custodian won the Men's Goalkeeper of the Year and Men’s Interclub Player of the Year awards. It is the first time a player from the Premier Soccer League has achieved that.
Have a look at what Mzansi said after Williams' achievement.
Africa's Talkative d'Or was Mngqithi's
Sundowns don't buy the best players, they buy good players and make them the best – Sikokele AzoVuya Magcoba
Why didn't they present Africa's Talkative d'Or to Manqoba Mngqithi, he'd have won it outright with no competition – Nthato Tlhapi

The little debate they tried to create regarding Ronwen Williams and Madala Itumeleng Khune is officially over. Williams is Africa's number one while Khune is Soweto's number one, levels – Tshepo Mjoli Loid Ifb
I think he should now be nominated for the Defender of a Season because, wow, his footwork is unbelievable – Khab'zela Mkhize
Williams has been confirmed as the GOAT
Khune with all that jumping, passing, and diving won nothing in Africa. Life is not fair – Brighton Tlou
The best there ever was and the best there will ever be in South Africa's goalkeeping department, Ronwen Williams – Tumisho Bartlett Monyebodi
Now the chapter comparing him with Itu is closed. The continent officially confirmed that indeed he is a GOAT – Mkhuseli KustarNet Nqweniso
Ronwen Williams is the best but the problem is that he's playing for a team that is hated – Franco Nondrarhana Nondrarhana
I wonder where those who were saying he must kiss his football career goodbye are. For sure they are not celebrating with Ronza because they are disappointed by their witchcraft statements – Lino Ndlovu
