Shalulile established himself as a PSL great after he scored his record-breaking goal on August 30, when his strike gave Sundowns a slim 1-0 victory over Stellenbosch.
In the previous match against Magesi FC, the former Highlands Park FC forward scored the goal that equalled Nomvethe's record. From then, it became a question of when, not if, he would become the league's all-time top scorer.
Before it was shattered, Nomvethe's record stood for six years.
