Eymael hints at Stars exit

Eymael looked dejected after his side’s defeat at Goble Park on Tuesday night.

After the game, the Belgian coach said last season’s Nedbank Cup triumph did not exempt from being sacked by the Mokoena family.

“They had two attacks in the first half and they scored two goals. We had two opportunities, we don’t score. I think we’re repeating the same thing every week,” Eymael told SuperSport TV.

“I don’t know what will happen. I’m trying my best unfortunately things are not going our way and I’m not clear on what is the solution.

“We were repeating this yesterday because we were studying our mistakes where we open the gap in the centre of defence for a through pass,” he added .

Eymael was upset with Bangaly Keita after the defender was substituted in the first half, despite claiming he was 100% fit to play.

“I’m very disappointed with some guys we had a meeting last week. I said if you’re not 100 percent fit for the game then say it. But I had a problem with one of our centre back, I called him today and he said, “no, no I’m 100 percent.”

“I told him pay attention because I don’t want to lose you after 20 or 40 minutes because I will lose a substitution but he said “no, I’m okay” and you saw what happened,. When things are like that you feel betrayed. It’s hard to accept.”
