Kaizer Chiefs go from bad to worse

Kaizer Chiefs go from bad to worse

Imperial leaders It seems like we are taking one step forward and two steps back.

Fans were optimistic when they saw their side line-up against Mamelodi Sundowns in front of a packed FNB Stadium – the stage was set for a tight back-and-forth battle, but would the Glamor Boys rise to the occasion?

In short, no.

It took the Brazilians fourteen minutes to find the back of the net after a penalty from Iqraam Rayners, who scored again eight minutes later – the score was 3-0 when the referee blew the whistle before half-time.

Heading into the second half it looked like Chiefs were doing damage control, trying to avoid a four-, five- or six-nil thumping, but that was quickly unraveled by Inacio Miguel – who in his first returned to playing a match after suspension. – red card in the 56th minute.

Four minutes later, Khuliso Mudua made it 4-0 to end Sundowns’ triumphant day out at the AmaKhosi quarters.

Imperial leaders were a shadow of their former selves compared to their controversial 2-1 defeat to the Brazilians a few weeks ago, begging the question: ‘Are they even in the top four?’

It is likely that they will not challenge for the title this year – that is a problem for Sundowns and Orlando Pirates.

Nabi apologizes to the fans

Coach Nasreddine Nabi was quick to express his regret to the Kaizer Chiefs ultras, against SuperSport“I would like to apologize to all fans,

“I congratulate my colleague. I’m very sorry about this outing. From the backline, from the goal to the front, nothing we’ve worked on today has worked.

“We wanted to have a reaction in the second half, but the red card we received at the beginning of the second half is difficult to get back, but that’s how football is.

“I would like to end by congratulating Mamelodi Sundowns, they had a great game. If someone does something good, we should accept it.

“But we would like to apologize to our wonderful fans. We know they have been waiting a long time for a moment of joy. We will go back and work harder to give them what they expect from us.”
