Pitso Mosimane has spoken out about the recent hostile reception he received from Mamelodi Sundowns’ fans.
Mosimane returned to the country with his Al Ahly side as they were beaten by Mamelodi Sundowns, 1-0.
While the action was intense on the field, off the field there was drama as well. Al Ahly were delayed entering the stadium after a group of Mamelodi Sundowns’ fans blocked the team bus.
Mamelodi Sundowns are currently investigating the matter and have promised to take action against fans found guilty.
This isn’t the first time that Mosimane has had problems with Sundowns fans. During a previous encounter between the sides, Mosimane was verbally abused by fans.
Mosimane has now blamed the hostilities on one person. As reported by The South African, Mosimane claimed that only one person was responsible, but would not say who that one person was.
“You know the person behind this. There is only one person behind all of this. But I’m strong in football and I’ve been around,” he said.
Mosimane also added that he intends to release an autobiography in the future in which he will speak out about all the issues between him and his former side, Sport24 reported.
Mosimane achieved a lot of success while with the Brazilians but the relationship became strained after he left the club.
