Nasreddine Nabi has slammed Kaizer Chiefs players after their goalless draw against Cape Town City in the Betway Premiership at the FNB Stadium on Wednesday evening.
The Glamour Boys needed a win to climb up the Betway Premiership table, but they were unable to achieve that as the Cityzens were too strong to break down.
The Cityzens won the first leg of the tie 1-0, but Amakhosi couldn't get their deserving revenge in the second leg.

"The match is over, and it's clear that we need more accountability from both our players and staff—Kaizer Chiefs deserves better," he shared with SuperSport TV, as reported by iDiski Times.
"We find ourselves in this situation because we drop too many points like this. We dominate the game, and create opportunities, but fail to convert.
"In those crucial moments, we need to be ruthless. This is Kaizer Chiefs, missing chances like that isn’t acceptable.
"Today, we lost the points, but we have a game coming up this weekend. We need those three points, but we know it won't be easy. Every game is tough, and every team is playing hard.
"Perhaps another team with more quality in attack would have capitalised on those moments. But we need to do better. Every player must understand the weight of wearing the Kaizer Chiefs shirt.
"If we give him five minutes, or even just ten, he needs to give everything on that pitch…"
Reactions to Nabi's complains about Kaizer Chiefs players
Thuto said:
"These are the same players who listed Mangethe his job, Du Preez has been missing for fun ever since he was signed."
Nathi Naz wrote:
"These players are wasteful. Their conversion rate is very bad. We can blame the coach all we like but those players need to put the ball behind the net, not the coach."
Mtukulu WaBhantjie reacted:
"Nabi knows his job, just that he must know that Chivaviro is a defensive striker."
MLANDO commented:
"Coach can only give guidance, but he can't get into the field to score .Our players sometimes are disappointing, yazi."
Kgontse added:
"I wish my coach could say the same about his players instead of always talking positive, those guys are too relaxed he needs to speak little about them.😣"
Grootman_100 shared:
"Do this players even talk to each as players to rectify their mistakes... Players need to have a positive relationship on their own before the relationship with the technical stuff .. they need to take their jobs serious."
gala_tweets responded:
"Frosler. makes a great run, drags defenders. gets as far as inside the box. then CROSSES AIMLESSLY HOPING TO FIND SOMEONE! half the time he falls as he crosses. always fails the final, It has become a learnt habit, someone needs to have a frank talk with him."
