TS Galaxy head coach Sead Ramovic has responded to Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Rulani Mokwena's claims that he encouraged his players to injure Bongani Zungu as revenge for his leg-breaking tackle on Bernard Parker.
After a long lay-off, Zungu came off the bench for Sundowns while they were leading 3-0 in the dying minutes and did not last long on the field, after a tackle by Orebotse Mongae, who was red-carded, saw him limp off the pitch.
After the game, Mokwena made allegations that Ramovic showed his players a clip of Zungu's tackle on Parker last year and that Mongae's tackle on Zungu was a revenge instigated by the TS Galaxy coach.

"I think the best thing is that he should watch again on TV, what we saw, maybe I'm wrong I don't know, it's not what he thought but I've learned that I will comment on anything what he said," Ramovic said on SuperSport.
"Because like I said maybe two months ago, if the guy (Mokwena) wants to advertise his ignorance all the time, you don't have to do anything, just to let him talk. I don't want to comment about anything, what he says. I will talk about my team, we have a lot to improve and we will as a team," he said.
The German-Serb tactician, however, looked at the positive of Parker making his return after that injury from Zungu and says it's an inspiration to everyone that nothing is impossible.
"Absolutely, I think this should now be the priority for us. We saw what a great inspiration Parker is, unbelievable, fantastic attitude to come back after this horrible injury, to be back at the game it's just an inspiration for every player, for every person who has this kind of injury," Ramovic went on.
"That everything is possible. I think not many believed that Parker can be back on the field, it's just him, me and my staff and the team but he was unbelievable, he worked so hard and we're absolutely happy that he is back and enjoy football player Bernard Parker," he added.
