Kaizer Chiefs coach Hunt laments being denied 'blatant' penalty against Baroka FC

The Soweto giants were held for a second-straight PSL game but their tactician feels an officiating decision changed the face of the match

Kaizer Chiefs coach Gavin Hunt says his side could have gained "a bit of some momentum" had their penalty call not been turned down by referee Velaphi Sicelo 10 minutes into Thursday's 1-1 Premier Soccer League draw away at Baroka FC.

Television replays show that Samir Nurkovic was tackled by Baroka captain Vusi Sibiya inside the box but Sicelo waved play on amid protests by Chiefs players.

Chiefs finally broke the deadlock 13 minutes into the second half through Lebogang Manyama, before Evidence Makgopa hit back for Bakgakga ba ga Mphahlele with nine minutes remaining.
