Did the Referee Get It Right? Chiefs Fans React to Disallowed Goal in Clash Against Sundowns

by Ephraim Lebeloane

Kaizer Chiefs fans were left fuming after the referee ruled out a crucial late goal in their 2-1 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns. Did the decision cost them the match?

The high-stakes Premier Soccer League clash at FNB Stadium saw early dominance by the Glamour Boys, with Ranga Chivaviro opening the score. However, Sundowns retaliated with goals from Lucas Ribeiro and Iqraam Rayners, securing a win for the reigning champions.

Controversy erupted when Chiefs thought they had equalized in the dying moments, only for the referee to rule out Edson Castillo’s goal. Was it the right call, or was it a mistake that cost Amakhosi vital points?

Fan Reactions

@DlaminiDukani: “We have improved Khosi, unfortunately, they were 12 on the field 😭”

@ramalokot: “It was a legitimate goal… kudlaliwe ngathi.”

@visse_ss: “Sundowns should thank that offside goal and referee.”

Chiefs’ supporters are convinced their team was hard done by. But what do you think? Should the goal have stood, or was the referee right to make the call?
