Coach miffed at showboating Ajax

Thami Nqolobe

Ajax Cape Town coach Muhsin Ertugral, pictured, was upset despite his charges' 2-0 victory over Santos in a rain-soaked Castle Premier League game at Athlone Stadium in Cape Town on Saturday night.

Ertugral blamed his boys for not following the game plan and said they were instead taken up with showboating.

"I am very angry tonight [Saturday] because my boys did not listen when I told them to go all out and finish," said Ertugral.

His counterpart, Roger de Sa, was equally unhappy: "We are all disappointed tonight for losing to Ajax and everybody saw that we lost in the first half that Ajax went all out from the start and got the result which they deserved."

The Urban Warriors' goals came from a Serge Dikilu penalty in the eighth minute and from Thembinkosi "Terror" Fanteni in the 24th minute.
