The Brazilians won the game 1-0 at Orlando Stadium in Johannesburg through a second-half strike from Gaston Sirino to complete the treble. But their march to the league title‚ the Telkom Knockout and the Nedbank Cup titles in the same season was spoiled by news that Celtic lodged an official complaint regarding Langerman.

Chapter 4 of the National Soccer League’s handbook‚ which deals with protests and complaints‚ states under rule number 51.3: “Where the protest relates to a player who is alleged to be an ineligible player‚ the protesting member club will lodge a written objection to the fielding of the player detailing the reasons for the objection‚ with referee and the opposing captain in the presence of an assistant referee no later than 30 minutes before the start of the match.

“I am not aware of that but I’ll ask the club. I don’t do player admin at the club‚ I focus on coaching the team‚” said Mosimane in his post-match media conference when asked if he knew Langerman was suspended after he picked up a fourth booking in the 3-0 win over Black Leopards the previous weekend.
