Kaizer Chiefs captain told to keep his cool after four yellow cards and a red

18 Views

Former Kaizer Chiefs defender David Kannemeyer has urged the club’s new captain Miguel Inacio to keep his cool during matches.

The 28-year-old Angolan international has made his presence felt since joining Amakhosi this season from Petro de Luanda. He has brought stability and leadership into the Chiefs team that lacked direction last season.

Under Nasreddine Nabi, Miguel has formed a partnership with Bafana Bafana star Rushwin Dortley.

Former Kaizer Chiefs star David Kannemeyer has praised Miguel but advised him to avoid unnecessary bookings. The defender already has four yellow cards and a red card this season.

“He’s a good defender, but I think he should learn to keep his cool and be a bit calm when he’s playing,” Kannemeyer told FARPost.

“I think it’s frustration, but as a leader and being a captain, sometimes he’s doing well in that field.

Ex-Kaizer Chiefs star wants Miguel to play clean

“Well [bookings] happen in football, if things are not going well you end up, doing those wrong actions. Those actions come with consequences that may haunt the team. If he corrects that, get less bookings, Miguel will improve his game without a doubt.”

Kaizer Chiefs are back in action on 27 November as they take on Richards Bay in the Betway Premiership. Amakhosi are currently ninth on the log but have two games in hand. Under Nabi, KaizerChiefs have played seven matches across all competitions, winning only three. Three other matches ended in defeat while one ended in a draw.

Should Chiefs get worried about Inacio Miguel’s discipline record?
