“Unfortunately our head coach could not be with us because he is in hospital, he wasn’t feeling well and asked to go see a doctor who recommended that he be admitted,” said Ndwandwe.
Ndlazi is a seasoned coach who led Mpumalanga Black Aces, who were campaigning in the National First Division, to the final of the Nedbank Cup in 2008, where they lost 1-0 to Mamelodi Sundowns.
