There is a lot of ill-discipline in this Kaizer Chiefs team. Whether he performs miracles or not, Fiacre Ntwari must be sanctioned. You cannot disobey the coach’s instructions. He started because of the coach’s decision, and refusing to go out deserves some punishment – Akwaba
Please terminate Fiacre Ntwari's contract with immediate effect because you can see he is very bad at stopping penalties – Top Runner
This is the Kaizer Chiefs that we know. You almost scammed us with the first four Premier Soccer League – Lebogang Rabapane
Tashreeq Morris hasn't played a single minute this season. You then decided to bring him on for penalties? – Matimba
It had to be one of the worst signings made by Kaizer Chiefs, Tashreeq Morris, who missed the penalty – Dan24Stock
You fire a coach and leave his students

Brilliant performance from Ntwari in the two hours of football action. What he did by refusing to be subbed does not look good on the outside. It takes courage, and he showed it. It’s just unfortunate that the results didn’t turn out in our favor – Aey Dear
I think we deserved this loss; we have senior players in the team and a captain as well, who are scared to take a penalty. We honestly deserved to lose. Our team lacks leadership and a strong personality from our so-called senior players. I'm very disappointed – Nero
You fire a coach and leave his students. His students play the same players who failed to get to the top eight last season and expect better results. The same students want to sub a keeper in the dying minutes, also bringing in a player who hasn't touched a ball this season to take a decisive penalty. I blame this on your management and how you run this team. Why buy so many players and all don't even make the match day squad? We need a proper coach ASAP and release the deadwood players like Morris and Ashley du Preez – Lucas Kagiso
Now send these plumbers, Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef, out of the team. They are a bunch of failures – Nom Khosi
Something is terribly wrong when the captain does not take a penalty. It's even more worrying when three out of six penalties are taken by defenders. If you have to bring on Morris to take a spot kick, then there are structural issues there. Attackers must take penalties – Sphephelo Mabuyakhul
