Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns summoned before PSL Disciplinary Committee

Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns, two prominent South African soccer teams, have been summoned to appear before the Premier Soccer League's (PSL) Disciplinary Committee due to fan-related incidents.

Angry supporters of Kaizer Chiefs expressed their frustration by throwing objects at head coach Molefi Ntseki. This incident occurred after the team suffered a loss, marking the second defeat in the league this season. The behavior of the fans led to concerns about sportsmanship and respect in the soccer community.

Mamelodi Sundowns are also facing disciplinary action following an incident involving player Themba Zwane. Zwane chose to salute fans alongside the team before an MTN 8 fixture against Moroka Swallows, resulting in him receiving a yellow card before the kick-off. While the gesture was intended as a show of appreciation, it raised questions about adhering to match protocols.

The Premier Soccer League's Disciplinary Committee, under the leadership of Advocate Zola Majavu, will address these incidents and determine appropriate actions. Both clubs are expected to provide explanations and may face penalties if the incidents are found to violate league regulations.

The summoning of Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns emphasizes the importance of maintaining sportsmanship, respect, and proper conduct both on and off the field. Soccer fans, players, and officials are reminded of their responsibility to uphold the integrity of the sport and contribute to a positive and inclusive soccer environment.
