Kaizer Chiefs assistant coach Ben Youssef threw his shot at PSL, over a tight scheduling that left them a little time for preparation and rest of upcoming games.
The Amakhosi have secure three points last night against Al Masry, put themselves top in the group of CAF Confederation cup.
The assistant coach hint double standard, as they should have got a space to breath, make themselves ready for upcoming competitions.
Ben Youssef cited an unnamed team with only 13 games under their belt. His frustration comes at a critical time as Chiefs look to progress in CAF competitions while local rivals, such as Pirates, focus solely on domestic affairs.
“Another team, I don’t want to say the name – they have 13 games, and they don’t play anything (not CAF games),” Ben Youssef remarked, underscoring the disparity that he feels places an unfair burden on his squad.
He argued that if the Chiefs are representing South Africa in these continental tournaments, the PSL must acknowledge the additional pressures and adjust its scheduling accordingly.
“If we are only representing Kaizer Chiefs, tell us that you are only representing Kaizer Chiefs. But if we are representing South Africa, tell us that you are representing South Africa,” he urged, calling out the inconsistency between competing teams’ schedules.
