We just need a coach. These players can do more if given enough to work with.
Again, we go 84 minutes with a flat Lilepo and Mmodi. No attacking substitutions when it's clear we are struggling there. We had already wasted a sub bringing in Sirino at 10 instead of Vilakazi when Mdu got injured. You're not keeping the ball but doing more work out of possession, and you think Sirino can help?
With Ndlovu not adding anything in ball retention or circulation, as well as defensive security. Bringing Ox doesn't bring much of a difference unless you're not willing to have your own moments on the ball. We were too predictable not wanting to stay with the ball. A Sirino at 10 needs the team to already be spending some time on the ball so that he can receive much higher with fewer actions needed before key actions where we can hurt the opponent.
A Cele would have allowed us force Sundowns to have less of the ball especially with a man down, relieve the pressure on our defense that does extra work because of the midfield and attack losing possession for fun. Even when Maboe would try slow down, it lacked support. Once the ball leaves his foot, it's going up in the air or just forward.
The defense was our best part of the game, the entire back 4, and Gk put a solid performance. A poor moment in that goal, but overall, they kept Sundowns out. The game was aggressive, and they stood their ground.
The sooner we move past the experiments of the co-coaches, the better. This team can do more.
