The first choice goalkeeper of the senior national team of Lesotho Sekhoane Moerane has been promoted to the rank of a sergeant from a constable in reward for his excellent performances for his club and the national team, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
A serving policeman, the 26 year old kept two games in the 2026 world cup qualifiers helping his team to impressive results against Nigeria which ended in a 1-1 draw and against Benin Republic.
He was particularly impressive against the Super Eagles of Nigeria, where he kept all efforts from their celebrated forwards like Taiwo Awoniyi, Victor Boniface, Moses Simon, Terem Moffi and Kelechi Iheanacho from beating him. It was defender Semi Ajayi that scored for Nigeria.
His reward was a promotion which was made public yesterday by Police Commissioner Holomo Molibeli, who stressed that the shot stopper has been a good ambassador for the crime fighters not just for the national team but also the police owned team called Lesotho Mounted Police Service FC.
