• The Bafana Bafana forward did not get much playing time for Brighton & Hove Albion but that's all in the past now
• Mzansi social media users and Al Ahly fans showed support to Percy Tau and showered him with compliments online

Bafana Bafana forward Percy Tau is flying high after having a magical debut with his new club Al Ahly. The baller scored two goals on his first appearance and shined bright on the day as his team beat Ismaily SC 4-0 in the Egyptian Premier League.

Tau's decision to join Al Ahly was met with criticism because some people felt that moving back to African football would be a downgrade. The attacking player later responded to his critics and explained that the reason for him leaving Brighton was so that he could play more football.

Unfortunately, it didn't pan out that way and the 27-year-old star had to make a quick decision about his career. Percy Tau made headlines when he decided to join Pitso Mosimane at Al Ahly and many questioned if the decision was the right one.

Tau has now opened up about why he joined the Egyptian giants and shared that he simply just wants to play football.

"I know South Africa is a footballing nation, so what’s the point of me sitting on the bench and not playing? Everyone wants to see me playing," said Tau.
