Queens Park Rangers’ own Tylon Smith, a beacon of youthful promise, has been selected for the South Africa senior squad, set to compete in the imminent Africa Cup of Nations hosted in Morocco. This milestone marks a significant leap in Smith's burgeoning football career and is a testament to his remarkable capabilities on the field.
Fresh from a triumphant Under-20 Afcon title win with South Africa in May, this 20-year-old talent joined QPR in July, further solidifying QPR’s roster with young blood ready to take on significant challenges. Smith's ascent within the football ranks has been nothing short of meteoric. His recent accolade as one of Africa’s top three young players of the year is a clear indication that we're looking at a star in the making. Having already donned the hoops in a full 90-minute showdown during QPR's Carabao Cup clash against Plymouth, Smith is slowly but surely making his presence felt.
Looking ahead, South Africa's fixture list pitches them against Angola in their opening match on the 22nd of December in Marrakesh, with further group stage hurdles against formidable sides like Egypt and Zimbabwe. For QPR and its faithful, this tournament will be an opportunity to watch Smith shine on a grand stage, hopefully carrying over his international form back to the club season.
Smith's involvement on the international stage is a gleam of prestige for QPR, demonstrating our knack for nurturing young talent capable of competing at the highest levels. His development and exposure at an international tournament like Afcon can only bode well for his confidence and skill set, attributes that QPR will reap upon his return.
As a lifelong QPR fan, seeing our players excel internationally always fills my heart with immense pride and joy. It reminds me of the glory days, like the 1966-67 season when we clinched the League Cup. It's young talents like Smith who spark dreams of returning to those days of glory, perhaps even surpassing them.
As the Championship campaign continues, we keep our spirits high and hopes pegged on our lads to bring home more than just match victories but perhaps a cup or two as well! And with Tylon Smith gaining invaluable experience at Afcon, I'm more convinced than ever that we’re on the right track.
And speaking of football glory, here's a cheeky one for our neighbours – How many Chelsea fans does it take to change a light bulb? None, they're stuck in the past, still talking about how bright their lamp used to shine! Keep the blue flags flying high… or maybe just at half-mast this season, fellas!
