Incensed Stellenbosch FC coach Steve Barker has become the latest DStv Premiership coach to suggest Kaizer Chiefs are benefiting from referees’ mistakes.
Amakhosi claimed a crucial 2-1 league victory over a 10-man Stellenbosch at FNB Stadium on Saturday thanks to a penalty by Ashley du Preez and a strike by Keagan Dolly .Stellies had goalkeeper Sage Stephens sent off in the 16th minute after he handled the ball outside the box and denied Dolly a chance to make it 2-0 for Chiefs.
Barker didn’t mince his words about the performance of referee Tshidiso Mkwanazi, saying the match official gave Stellies the short end of the stick.Barker started his rant in his Supersport TV interview and continued it in the post-match press conference.“Unfortunately, it’s not often that I get as angry as I am. We don’t get given enough time to cool down, so I’m going to tell it as it is,” Barker said in his television interview.
In the press conference, Baxter explained he did not dispute the red card against Stephens, but said there may have been an offside call in the build-up to Chiefs’ penalty. “Before I get to the anger part, I think one must congratulate Chiefs — they seem to be a team that put other teams under a lot of pressure when they are getting 11 or 12 penalties a season,” Barker said.“In the last six matches [for Chiefs, there were] three red cards in the first half to the opposition. Well done to them. They must be doing things right and creating problems for opposition. “I’m disappointed with the ref today.
