Kaizer Chiefs head coach Fernando Da Cruz confirmed Lebohang Maboe was taken off injured against Golden Arrows at the Mbombela Stadium, on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The experienced campaigner was key in the Betway Premiership 0-0, missed a first-half penalty, then went off early in the second half, putting his only Chiefs’ Bafana Bafana call-up under Pitso Mosimane in doubt for Guinea on 26 September, Eritrea on 30 September, and Egypt on 4 October.<\/p>\n
That could leave Bafana without their only Chiefs option under Maboe\u2019s former Mamelodi Sundowns coach, while Chiefs would be weaker in an attack that already struggles to score, with the midfielder having scored twice and provided two assists this season.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe changed position for position for Maboe, unfortunately his injury arrived a bit early in the second half,” Da Cruz said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter we were a bit imbalanced in midfield The other substitutions were to win the game, I changed attacking players to win the game, because we always want to win the game.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut unfortunately today we touched the post, we had opportunites but we didn\u2019t score. We have a lack of maturity in our frontline,” the Frenchman continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cYoung players with a lot of quality but they lack maturity. But we are on a good way. We have to continue this way and will score, I\u2019m 100% sure.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople who watched in front of the tv today, it was a 0-0, but they have watched a very good game.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
