What's the story?
It can be said that Amakhosi are enduring a frustrating spell of late, with the defeat to Arrows being the latest tribulation. The Glamour Boys have now gone four games without a win as they linger in fifth spot on the DStv Premiership table.
While Chiefs became a trending topic online during the news of Start Baxter's axing, the club recently became a big talking point yet again, with Ngcobo taking centre stage.
Errors Outbursts
An error from the Bafana Bafana international in the 59th minute awarded Siboniso Conco the golden opportunity to pull one back for Arrows. Minutes later, Arrows nearly capitalised off another Ngcobo error.
Subsequently, Interim coaches Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard introduced Daniel Cardoso at the expense of Ngcobo, who was not pleased at the coaches decision as seen in his touchline outburst.
Here's how fans reacted to the incident:
Imagine trying to win any competition with such players??????.

Njabulo Ngcobo had a good game, 2 mistakes nyana he gets subbed? Noo man, Zwane got this one wrong. It's like they were waiting for him to make a mistake.

Njabulo Ngcobo throwing a tantrum after being substituted. Taking him off after making more than one mistake. One leading to a goal. This is where as a former player you should be protecting the player instead of subbing him in front of the supporters. Reaction still not good.

Njabulo Ngcobo refused to shake hands with ZWANE, Sheppard and Lee BAXTER then theworst part he pushed Lee BAXTER away when he was trying to talk to him. #KaizerChiefs pic.twitter.com/LUw7oEXwKX

Really disappointed in Njabulo Ngcobo, I don't see him playing going forward. And he had a good first half of the match, what happened to him second half? This proves Baxter right?

I'm not a Kaizer Chiefs fan but that stinking attitude of Njabulo Ngcobo after he was subd by coach Zwane sucks man. Kaizer Chiefs management must deal with this boy. No one is bigger than the club. pic.twitter.com/41kt1bZdQX
