Former Kaizer Chiefs forward Junior Khanye has criticized goalkeeper Bruce Bvuma for his performance against Marumo Gallants in the South African Premier League.
The Soweto-based outfit threw away their one goal lead as Marumo Gallants staged a comeback to defeat Kaizer Chiefs at the weekend.
Kaizer Chiefs succumbed to a 2-1 defeat to Marumo Gallants on Saturday, further derailing their campaign. The club could finish in a lower half of the league standings at the end of the season.
However, the former attacker expressed his displeasure about the clubs goalkeeping department, while criticizing Bruce for the teams defeat against Marumo Gallants.
“The goalkeeper played poorly, Bvuma played poorly. He was just kicking the ball away. Now he’s kicking the ball, and it’s landing near the opponent. An experienced player. I want to say that we are not being harsh on the players, but we must be realistic. I mean, the team lost. That ball was one-on-one. I think the Chiefs could have drawn.
If you don’t have a goalkeeper, it’s a problem, especially for a big team like Kaizer Chiefs. Orlando Pirates have one of the best goalkeepers (Sipho Chaine), especially in the country, and Ronwen Williams too at Mamelodi Sundowns; it’s only Kaizer Chiefs. I think, being a big team, this is where they are losing,” said Khanye, quoted by iDiski Times.
