Are ex-Kaizer Chiefs players right to defend Khune?

One of the main talking points from Kaizer Chiefs' 3-0 defeat to Mamelodi Sundowns at the FNB Stadium on Saturday afternoon was the error-riddled display of legendary goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune.

After a couple of shaky moments early in the match against Sundowns, including a goal-line clearance by Ramahlwe Mphahlele after a Khune error, the Pretoria side took the lead in the 37th minute when the former Bafana stopper missed his attempt to clear a corner, which allowed Peter Shalulile to head in.

Khune attempted to blame Themba Zwane for interference, but replays showed his was grasping at straws, which only served to further highlight the initial blunder.
