Cardoso Unhappy With Sundowns Star After Big Win

PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA - JANAURY 25: Miguel Cardoso, Head coach of

Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso was unhappy with one player after their 5-2 win over Sibanye Golden Stars.

The Brazilians progressed to the Nedbank Cup round of 16 after defeating Golden Stars quite handsomely on Saturday evening.

Cardoso felt it was mission accomplished on the day after scoring five goals.

"The victory was not in the end, the victory was from the very beginning, it's normally that sometimes it's very difficult to focus the players in the best way, we changed a lot of players, we changed players during the game," Cardoso said after the game.

"Mission accomplished, five goals, what (more) to say? Nothing more, it's very easy. The game became simple and then we get a red-card, it's obvious for the team to shake a little bit but five goals, nothing to say."

The South African champions did finish the game with ten men after Bathusi Aubaas was shown a red card in the second half.

"That's what made me a little bit unhappy regarding the situation of Aubaas," he added.

"Because indeed we should not have any disciplinary questions, so that we can proceed for the next games with everybody.

"I didn't see what happened so I cannot speak about that, what I know is that he got the red card and he was playing normal, it's not a question of how he was playing.

"we need to manage the emotions, I don't really know what happened. So I'll take a look and we'll see."
