The latest FIFA calendar dates will come as a breather for Peter Shalulile – who has found himself in a web of scoring troubles this season at Mamelodi Sundowns.
Shalulile has played eight games without a goal this season and interesting is the fact that he has been used in all matches played by the club.

So, if it has been game-time that the Namibian has needed, then he has had 411 minutes so far this term.
This has left him with almost seven hours of football played without scoring.
The 30-year-old last scored in May in the tense 1-1 draw against TS Galaxy – a mere dead rubber for Sundowns, which was hyped by the friction between Rulani Mokwena and Sead Ramovic.
Shalulile then didn't play the last league match of the campaign and the Nedbank Cup final.
Last season, he went 10 games without scoring, before grabbing a brace against Galaxy at the end of April.
The lack of goals from Shalulile have become a subject of interest considering how much of the responsibility he has carried on his shoulders since arriving from Highlands Park.
The Sundowns gunslinger's numbers have read 22, 30, 23 and 15 while wearing Yellow and Blue and had 19 in his last season at Highlands Park.
He has scored 90 goals in four seasons at The Brazilians.
There is also the matter of surpassing Siyabonga Nomvete's all-time scoring tally of 123 goals.
These are goals scored while playing for a top-league South African club across all competitions.

Shalulile is on 117, with Bradley Grobler on 113.
The Tshwane giants are next in action over the weekend of 19-20 October in the Carling Knockout, before they then travel to Polokwane City the following week.
