Fans react negatively to Rhulani Mokwena

Local football fans took to social media to voice their disapproval of Mokwena's accusations, as they believe the table-topping coach is making a mountain out of a molehill.

Justice Jonathan disagrees with Mokwena:

"I think Rhulani is making this up; I don't think any coach in his right mind will encourage his players to do something like that. On second thought, one may ask why he didn't report that to any of the authorities before it happened."

Sphelele Biyela questions how Rhulani can make the claim:

"And how does Rhulani know what happens inside the opposition's dressing room? Is he implying that Mamelodi Sundowns pay some people to spy for them?"

David Nakile Phalane is confused:

"With so much success, I wonder why he is so obsessed with other people."

Skhumba Mastermind thinks Mokwena might have a case:

"There's no smoke without fire, Rhulani is right. Let them also prove within 24 hours that he's lying."
