Eymael and Sundowns media officer in twar
Free Stars Stars coach Luc Eymael and Mamelodi Sundowns media officer Thulani Thuswa got into a heated Twitter war after the Belgian coach complained about the standard of the Sisa Dukashe Stadium pitch.

Eymael’s Stars lost 1-0 to Chippa United at this venue and Eymael complained about the pitch after the game.
It seems Thuswa took offence to some of the coach’s comments.
Thuswa then took to Twitter to voice his concerns and ended up in a heated debate with Eymael who was responding to his tweets.
Eymael made it clear that he has no problem with the Absa Premiership or South Africa, saying he was only speaking about the pitch.
DEAR COACH LUC EYMAEL: don’t tell @OfficialPSL about Belgium here. If the grass was greener in Belgium (A division), you would be coaching there! pic.twitter.com/PiqaO0p1bw

Agree with @EymaelLuc here. We should quit accepting substandard pitches. We had WC here that had world class facilities,that could have at least filtered down to PSL by now,8 years later
