Pitso shocked by Benni axing Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane says he is shocked at the axing of Benni McCarthy by Cape Town City, saying the former Bafana Bafana striker was an inspiration to all coaches in the country.

He pointed to the two clubs’ current predicament – they occupy the bottom two positions on the league table – saying those that have replaced them, foreign duo Norman Mapeza and Jozef Vukisic respectively, have hardly made much difference.

Mosimane also questioned the logic of bringing foreign coaches, who had won little over the years, to South Africa. He says those same foreign countries would never give him a job even though he had such a glittering CV that has seen him win umpteen titles domestically and even the top prize on the continent in the form of the Champions League.

The Sundowns boss says it would have been more sensible to stick with a young coach like McCarthy and allow him, as a South African, to grow.
