Eymael, who handled Simba s rivals Yanga in the Mainland Premier League, has blamed the team’s heavy defeat to a lack of concentration and poor marking, and further said Chiefs have put themselves in a great position because they didn t concede any away goals.
“Sometimes I will say perhaps it was a good day for Kaizer [Chiefs] and a very bad day for Simba when you receive 4-0 is a difficult day and Chiefs did everything very well,” Eymael told
Goal on Sunday.
Asked on what are the chances for Simba to eliminate Chiefs, Eymael said: “Simba should have had a chance if they had managed to score away goals but now 4-0 it will be very difficult because Chiefs is an experienced team, with experienced players, the coach is also very experienced so I don’t say it is impossible because you know in football it is always possible.
