Orlando Pirates coach Mandla Ncikazi during a post-match press briefing after losing to Simba SC
“Why do Africans do this to other Africans, do you really think the hostility that we get when we come here when Simba comes to South Africa should we treat them that way,”
“Is that what you expect? And all of you here are going to lie and write lies, write the truth, Simba did not deserve to win. The penalty they got was not a penalty, the penalty we got was not given, and VAR was not working.
“The treatment that we got from the stadium to the hotel, from the airport – why do you do this as Africans to other Africans, are we going to improve the football in the continent and we are all proud that Simba won, they did not win, the referee made them win.
“You should be ashamed of yourselves as Africans, but listen to this, we’re going to treat Simba with decency when they come, we’re going to show them what it is to be a true African by giving them the best hospitality and treat them like human beings.
“You don’t treat visitors the way we get treated here, you should all be ashamed. We did not deserve to lose, the officials caused us to lose.”
