Kaizer Chiefs head coach Stuart Baxter has conceded that his team’s performance in their league defeat to Royal AM on Saturday was embarrassing. KaizerChiefs DStvPremiership By Mihlalibaleka | IOLsport
In stoppage time, a Chiefs’ corner-kick, which saw them push more men forward, was turned over into a counter-attack by the visitors. And that’s when substitute Mfundo Thikazi put the final nail in the coffin as the visitors claimed all three points.
“The last 10 minutes of the game were quite embarrassing and we need to apologise to our supporters,” Baxter said in his post-match press conference at the Calabash. “What started as a good night turned into a very cruel one on our side.” He added: “We had to change. So, we got back into a back-four. Maybe that made it a little bit more complicated for the players. I don’t know. But the decision making, the nervousness, lack of quality and naivety made it difficult to come back.”
“It’s not only a hard defeat. It’s embarrassing. The naivety of the players once went behind is astounding.”
