Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso has hit out at his players for the goal they conceded in the 1-1 CAF Champions League draw against AS FAR at a packed Loftus Stadium on Sunday.
The South African giants needed just a point to progress from Group B, and Peter Shalulile's early strike seemed to have set them on their way before Amine Zouhzouh's 83rd-minute leveller ensured a nervous finale.
“Bitter sensation was when we arrived here that the group was very difficult,” he told SABC Sport. “This was a very tough group from the very beginning and the situation was not comfortable. So, arriving here and going through the group stage I think it was obviously an accomplishment.
“Obviously, that’s when we’re winning the game with 20 minutes to finish in total control of the game. We didn’t expect to get the draw, we expected to finish the game and win.
“It’s football and you need to pay attention to the details. I think it’s a little bit stupid goal the one that we suffered and, in the end, of course you don’t get first position.”
The Portuguese tactician continued: “Let’s speak about what we gonna do in the next moment. Let’s wait for the draw and see what will happen then."
