The Sea Robbers mentor has refused to pin the blame on referee Abongile Tom following a controversial MTN8 final defeat. The Buccaneers suffered a 2-0 loss to rivals, the Pretoria-based outfit, at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday evening.

The 25-year-old has reflected on his decision to return to the Tshwane giants, expressing pride in his performances since coming back to South Africa. After a difficult spell in North America, the attacker returned to familiar surroundings at Chloorkop and has since enjoyed a trophy-laden spell.

The Masandawana midfielder has spoken out about the turbulent period that preceded his high-profile move to Chloorkop. The 29-year-old had to navigate a complicated exit from Kaizer Chiefs before establishing himself as a key figure in the Brazilians' star-studded squad.

Downs chairman has hailed the tactical evolution of his side following their hard-fought victory in the MTN 8 final. The Brazilians ended their long drought in the competition by overcoming rivals Orlando Pirates in a clash that required as much grit as it did glamour.
