Pirates coach Mandla Ncikazi went on a tirade after they lost 1-0 to Simba SC during the first leg of the Caf Confederation Cup quarterfinal clash at the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Sunday. The second leg is at Orlando Stadium on Sunday.
Ncikazi said Bucs were treated “like animals” and also disputed the decision on the penalty from which Shomari Kapombe scored in the 68th minute. Simba SC CEO Barbara Gonzalez replied with a strongly-worded statement saying Ncikazi's remarks were “defamatory”, “unprofessional an unethical” and “distasteful”.
Mngqithi — as Sundowns prepare for their own big quarterfinal second leg, in the Caf Champions League against Petro Atletico at FNB Stadium on Saturday — did not want to delve into the details of what might have happened to Pirates in Tanzania. He said, however, the Brazilians receive fair treatment and also plan for their continental trips with precision.
We've played against biggest club in Africa (Al Ahly) and treated them well not only them, also Tp Mazembe, & other best clubs in Africa were treated well here. Who are Orlando Pirates to be treated unfair? Ncikazi was finding a reason if his team lost by many goals in 1st leg
Maxwell__Ncube Ngamagwala gqith oo Manqobq kula 3 sum yabo. Ebekade ethuleleni ixesha eli angathethi? Even iPRO yabo hinted on the this when KC gave Pitso’s men their facilities, wathi there are teams eziphatha these African clubs ngobele, but when SA teams go to Africa, the treatment differs.
Big teams don't complain
Until Sundowns fire him
Enjoy your so called respect while it lasts. Rude awakening is nothing horizon.
