Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture Gayton McKenzie has reprimanded Mamelodi Sundowns’ CAF Champions League-winning coach Miguel Cardoso and will submit a written complaint to the club about the Portuguese tactician’s behaviour.
Cardoso, who masterminded Sundowns’ second CAF Champions League triumph on Sunday in Rabat, Morocco, criticised the local Betway Premiership in his post-final comments.
The 53-year-old has been vocal all season about the scheduling of Sundowns’ domestic fixtures alongside their continental commitments, which ultimately caught up with the Pretoria side as they surrendered the Betway Premiership title for the first time in nine seasons.
We are happy for @Masandawana but we cannot continuously be told by this coach about how bad our league is run. We like everyone else got challenges but we have the best run league in Africa. Stop talking down on South Africa. We will write to @Masandawana to complain today. https://t.co/qrdrQffgox
