'Stop This Nonsense' - Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates Under Fire Over Showboating

South African giants Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates players have been heavily criticised over their showboating tendencies in their recent matches. South African giants Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates have been slammed over what has been described as disrespectful behaviour of showboating. Chiefs came under fire from former Mamelodi Sundowns captain Hlompho Kekana, who hit out at them for their flicks and tricks during their CAF Confederation Cup match against AS Simba of DR Congo, which they won 3-1 on Sunday. The Glamour Boys were 3-0 up after 26 minutes and in the second half, they turned on the style, something that did not impress Kekana as he thinks such kind of approach should only be employed with the intention of creating chances and scoring goals.

Can you do that when we want a winning goal?" Kekana posed when he appeared on South Africa's state broadcaster SABC as per Afrik-Foot. "You have to respect the opponents...please. Because if they do that to you when you're losing a match, I'm sure you can get a red card because you'll want to kick [them]. "That's something I don't condone as a former footballer because I know what it means when you're losing the match and people start doing showboating." Hours after Kekana's sentiments, Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou also went hard on his players for showboating during their Carling Knockout quarter-final match against Magesi FC, which they won 2-1, on Tuesday night. The Moroccan coach was not impressed when his players opted to 'showoff' instead of scoring more goals as they led 1-0 until the 88th minute when they doubled the advantage before Magesi pulled one back in stoppage time. "I'm not here to go to the circus or play circus, I'm here to improve my players to go forward and we have to stop this nonsense, because in the end we concede a goal and our target [was a clean sheet], and to score more goals. So, we need to improve on that if we want to be more ambitious," said Ouaddou. "I'm respecting the culture and traditions, in a fantastic country who love football, it's a land of football; South Africa, but we need to find the right balance between doing our job to score goals, it's okay in a cup game, but in the league every goal is important," he went on.
