Reacting to the game during the post-match conference, as per iDiskiTimes, Mngqithi teased Kaizer Chiefs fans after they came out to see their team lose to the Brazilians.

"Thanks to our supporters who came in numbers to support us," the South African tactician said on SuperSport TV.
"Unfortunate for the Chiefs fans, but they came in numbers, we appreciate that. Even if they didn't get the result, at least they had the crowd, and they're also going home with some nice flags; I like those flags. Thank you."

Kaizer Chiefs fans believed they were robbed of a deserving goal, and Sundowns were controversially awarded a goal that had a player in an offside position during the build-up.
