Benni McCarthy Concerned with AmaZulu’s Lack of Goals Thus Far!

Benni McCarthy Concerned with AmaZulu‘s Lack of Goals Thus Far! Usuthu are yet to find the back of the net this season.

AmaZulu drew 0-0 with SuperSport United in the DSTV Premiership last night. Head coach Benni McCarthy has expressed his concern at his team’s lack of goals.

In their three games so far this season, they have not scored. In fact, clear cut chances have seemed few and far in between.

They also struggled to break down the SuperSport back line last night. Goalkeeper Ronwen Williams was far from overworked in the game.

“We showed heart and determination with 10 men to stay in the game.” McCarthy told SuperSport TV after the game.

“We did not let them create one chance to win. I think that the fight we showed was superb and we even looked to win the game,” he said.

“Our lack of goalmouth action is a concern. Our players don’t seem to want to score goals.

“We create chances but are not scoring them. It’s a big problem.

“My biggest quest was to sign a striker and maybe it caused our current strikers to lose confidence because I said it publicly.

“We need an additional option to give us something different when we go to games. It’s not the best situation but we can’t complain about getting a point from the game.” He spoke.

McCarthy was far from happy with the officiating in the game. Both sides went down to 10-men in the second half.

“The referee could not really control the game. It was one-way traffic with everything going in favour of one team.

“Our frustrations grew, and tackles came flying in.

“I thought it was a clean challenge from Tercious as he won possession without touching the player. If that’s what the mentality of our players these days is, it makes them mediocre and average.

“He [SuperSport midfielder Jamie Webber] rolled over like his leg was broken when he was not touched. The referee fell for it.

“The fourth official saw it and was telling the referee which way to go when we committed a foul.” He concluded.
