Pitso keeping close eye on referee decisions during Soweto Derby

Cape Town - Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane will be keeping a close eye on the refereeing decisions made in Saturday's Soweto Derby between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.

Chiefs and Pirates meet in a Telkom Knockout quarter-final at Moses Mabhida Stadium. Mosimane was critical of the fact that Chiefs were awarded what he believes was an offside goal in Sundowns' 2-0 defeat to the Amakhosi on Sunday.

And the Masandawana mentor revealed he will have his eyes peeled for any further refereeing mistakes that favour Chiefs.

"This must stop. Where are we going? We have to look at them again next weekend," Mosimane told KickOff.

"I want to see if the referees will make mistakes against Pirates. Let's see. Something has to give in now. I don't know if Pirates supporters will allow it.

"Something has to give in. You can't win every game by referees' mistakes. It must stop. It's enough. We have seen it before but now it's a series. It's a series."

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
