Oscarine Masuluke (born 23 April 1993) is a South African professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Baroka FC. He previously played for TS Sporting.
On 30 November 2016, Masuluke gained attention after his last-minute bicycle kick goal earned Baroka a 1–1 draw with the Orlando Pirates. The goal was later nominated for the 2017 FIFA Puskás Award.[1][2] Masuluke finished second in the voting, with Olivier Giroud elected the winner and Deyna Castellanos taking third.[3][4] On 27 February 2018, he was released by Baroka following allegations that he and other teammates drank on the team bus.[5]

He returned to Baroka on a three-year deal in September 2020.[9]
