Controversy: Player punished for showboating

[iworo]

South African midfielder Sipho Moeti booked for showboating

Just weeks after we witnessed the first recorded instance of a mid-match dab, the South African league has coughed up another instance of pure, unadulterated showboating magic.

Unfortunately for Baroko midfielder Sipho Moeti, the referee on duty wasn't quite as impressed by his theatrics against Platinum Stars and duly decided to book the 24-year-old for ungentlemanly conduct.

Speaking after the game, Moeti admitted that he was a little upset to have been cautioned and is therefore planning to ask his club to appeal the card.

"I was disappointed with the yellow card. I believe the opponent was far [away] and I was within my right to show off my skill," Moeti told Kick Off. "Those who defend must defend. Those who pass must pass the ball. Those who have skill, let them show it."

Hear hear!

New England Revolution striker Kei Kamara booked for twerking

What better way to celebrate your last goal of the season then with a good, old-fashioned twerk?


In what surely must be a first for association football, New England Revolution striker Kei Kamara was given a yellow card during his side's 3-0 win over Montreal Impact for the heinous crime of twerking during a game.

Kamara scored Revolution's third goal in the latter stages of the match, cracking one in from an acute angle to flesh out the scoreline.

The 32-year-old then decided to celebrate with a quick twerk, though it went entirely unappreciated by the referee, who was swift in brandishing the caution.

Despite their comprehensive victory over Impact on the final day of the regular MLS season, Revolution missed out on making into the play-offs on goal difference and goal difference alone.

Kamara should be flogged. I mean what the hell was that.

There was nothing wrong with the South Africans show boating though it's all within the rules of the game

[Tbite]

That South African league get as e be

[/video]

but maybe this is what the NPFL needs to get more numbers. If we have some local players doing Shoki and Skelewu mid match....or we even have some people playing Ludo mid match.

[oluwaseye the 1st.]

Referees taking it too seriously after all its only a game. Lol!! Well I must blame the late Bill Shankly of Liverpool who famously said "football is not a matter of life and death, its more important than that"

[Chimex101]

rubbish like this is what makes me miss the likes of Roy Keane, Gattuso and Cantona, that clown would have been stretchered off with a broken leg or two.

[fledy]

Na so we see our South African brothers dey do dance dance on the ball. We never see them do anything

Young men? Ok o....isnt "twerking" shaking yansh?

[TonyTheTigerKiller]

This is why Africa stalls at every turn. We pay too much attention to irrelevances. Football is an entertainment sport and that display was pure entertainment. The ref's action was an insult to all the Okochas, Ronaldos, Ronaldinhos and, might I add, Ogbuezes who ever played the game


Cheers.

Tweking..hell no! But good old showboating why not....but thank your stars you did not live in our generation. We appreciate showboating,but we also tend to appreciate those who punish showboaters...not by dishing out cards, rather by a well timed tackle that sends vibration right through your spine...

[Mzekezeke]

For those of you passing disparaging remarks showboating is a part of our football. People pay to see characters like this. The history of South Afican football is littered with show boaters it's a vital part of our football culture. Indeed this is reflected in the nicknames of our ballers over the years.
People like

Bernard "dancing shoes" Hartze
Ephraim"shakes" Mashaba
Helman"midnight express" Mkhaleke
Jabu"shuffle the pack" Mahlangu
Marks "go-man-go" Maponyane
Vusi"computer" Lamola
Kagiso"zero-my-hero"Mogale
Donald "Ace" Khuse
Sulie "bump jive" Bhamjee
John "shoes" moshoeu
Doctor Khumalo

All show boaters in South African football there are many more.

That ref is trying to show off does he think he is officiating in the EPL. SAFA needs to deal with him as he is setting a dangerous precedence

[1naija]

Isn't this the type of Rubbish JJ is know for in football circles. Even till this day people are still inviting all over the world to do this at half time for games

Really? Please explain....

Opposition players detest this type of showboating (which they regard as disrespectful). If he did that in a Championship or Brazilian league game, an opposition player would try to break him in half.

Mamelodi Sundowns won the ACL, meanwhile our players are running to strange lands for strange contracts.

How many times did they break Pele, Bebeto, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, etc
