Official Telkom Knockout FB - Moroka
Swallows ease into the quarterfinals of the Telkom Knockout with a 3-0 success
over Mamelodi Sundowns. The Birds profited from a hat-trick of mistakes from
Sundowns goalkeeper Calvin Marlin, who made a disastrous return to the side for
this match. Swallows were good value for their win though, Sundowns failed to
ever really hit top gear.
Sundowns supporters speak out after their shocking defeat to Swallows:
Karabo Mutsi
I’m a
proudly Sundowns supporter, I will be much happy if the coach will go. The
Sundowns that we knew is no longer there, we lost our format of piano and shoe
shine, we play sh!t. Coach must go and we hire a South African coach that knows
and understand our football of style.
Humbulani J Vhulahani
Marlin is
still our keeper but unfortunately let the team down. One team had to win and
unfortunately was not Sundowns and their keeper was man of match.
Bongani Solwandle
Calvin
Marlin, Katlego Mphela, Surprise Moriri, Teko Modise, Franklin Cale, Mabuthi
Khanyeza are all a liability to the Downs club. They should all be expelled
with immediate effect. Please Mr. Motsepe get rid of these idiots, they're
costing the team a lot.
Goitsemodimo Madome
No longer a
Sandawana fan from now on until you are serious of wining... mxm coach must go together
with Marlin boring Sundowns sis.
Percy Dlamini
Don’t blame
the coach here, akazani nabadlali basemzansi, I blame the management for
signing leyimvuthu zabadlali. The coach only picked the best among the worst.
Thulani Manzini
Guys we
need to find a root cause here, as much we can take blame to Marlin and Coach,
I would say there entire team did not come to party. Our team shows no sense of
urgency, they are TOTALY not hungry for a glory that's all. All of them are to
be blamed.
Nito Serage
Coach didn’t
or wasn’t playing, players messed up… and who said we have a rite to beat Moroka
Swallows, they were the better team and deserve their win, its football it’s a
win or lose... Kabo Yellow.
Leago Nhlapo
Marlin cost
us the game but I will like to say the coach is to be blamed, we have Mampuru and
Nyatama and also good players after we were 2-0 down… he was supposed to attack
with the likes of Henyekane and others... mxm I’m disappointed with tonight’s
game.
Scurer Envy
I mean in a
knockout competition how can you play fringe players *Marlin and etc* and expect
to win… mxm are don’t know what was the coach thinking… now we have to watch other
teams play… me so f!cken pissed off!
Keotshabile Thuso Ketlogetswe
I’m going
to say this again, Neeskens must leave, he s**ks, why d hell should he bring Marlin
to the squad, we are tired of this, enough is enough, damn boring weekend because
of a damn stupid coach, he should leave… mxm!
Miso Mczi Gcwabaza
I love this
team but me starting to hate it because of the way they play I think the coach
akabazi abafana we need someone who can understand our boys so please management
do something about this I hate to see Sundowns idliwa kanje #crying#
Andile Decoy Masondo
Johan is a
foolish man... f!ck man, how can you play Marlin on a Knockout Cup game, when
he don’t even remember when last he played the game... f!ck… me disappointed in
the coach, players who played… Mphela must warm the bench, Moriri too, usindwe
yikhanda the whole game... THE COACH MUST BE FIRED… IT’S CLEAR HE WON'T WIN ANY
CUP!!
Percy Dlamini
After a
certain guy was shown the exit door in the Pirates team, Pirates started
playing and winning games. I repeat, Modise make useless passes in the team .He
make a pass n stops running to a better position. That is why we can’t make
positive penetration.
Thomas Tshepo Tshabangu
To be
honest our coach doesn't understand our culture, the simple thing to do is to
pack the bags and go. There are lots of local coaches who can do better than him;
he is failing us ''period''.
Mogomotsi Makabe
I’m heartbroken,
maybe we Sundowns fans are there only people who want silverware, not the players,
I don’t know what to say. Thanks to my beloved Sundowns for ruining my night. Night
guys Ka Bo Yellow.
Malan Mabasa
These so
called quality players of us are doing sh!t on the field. What was Mphela doing,
what was Marlin thinking... cant blame the coach at all... I’m tired of the so
called Mzansi finest killer… instead of killing opponents, he is killing us... pissed!
RobertPhasha Phasha
Sundowns is
a disgrace period guys, don’t know why waste my time supporting them. Players
who are not doing anything for the team, all they care about is the money, they
don’t give a f!ck about Sundowns, all the players should be fired! I’m so
pissed guys for real; it’s so painful supporting a team that doesn’t do anything
for the fans.
Akekh Zikhali
Playing
good football resembles kinder like Brazilian but not exactly where you launch
several attacks after attacks keeping the opponents at bay. You can also see
that kind of football with Barca. They are more worried about scoring more
goals than the opponents. I also do not buy this thing on 'only' blaming the
keeper and defence we should create chances and score more than opponent.
Tonight was a cup game and would also not mind winning by 4-3 provided there
was promising good touches from man to man.
Sisa Maxoki
This team
is going to win when? Even blind man can see players are not happy. Coach how
on earth how can you release natural destroyer Zothwane for Moriri are you ok? Mr.
Motsepe money is destroying our lovely Sundowns. Read the history then ask yourself
where you went wrong.
Oarabile Tlhale
No balance
in midfield, their work rate is just 2 low. We need a real workaholic whose got
drive and determination and both goalies don’t install confidence in their
defenders, as for captain he is not strong enough he doesn’t motivate, the coach
must use Nyandoro because of his leadership abilities like the S.A rugby
captain was used anyway we'll surely bounce back!
Percy Dlamini
From tonight
onwards, I’m stopping supporting Sundowns, I’ll rather support Black Aces. The
players are making fun of us. I’m stopping following this sh!t, not me alone but
my family also will be forced to socilalise with another team.
