Ernst Middendorp revealed why Itumeleng Khune did not play

Amakhosi played a very nice game and all players played high quality football and they showed that attitude of winning but unfortunately they were unlucky Bidvest stole their shine at the end of the game. Bidvest Wits were not threaten that much but when they got the late goal the game changed and the hearts of the Amakhosi family members  were broken.

“He missed some training sessions for different reasons in terms of having a challenge, I don’t want to put too much in, we are not discussing any injuries, during the entire time we haven’t spoken about any injury. It is simple and easy, there were a number of training days where he couldn’t make it and good, you decide and today it was Daniel Akpeyi and Bruce and let’s move forward to the next game,” Middendorp explained.

The game ended 1 -1 but also Mamelodi Sundowns were held by Orlando Pirates the day before Kaizer Chiefs played with Bidvest Wits. Yes Kaizer Chiefs still have an advantage but it would have been better if they won.
