Bethuel Muzeu has come to the defence of Namibian captain Peter Shalulile after the poacher failed to score for his country at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Namibia exceeded many people’s expectations by reaching the last sixteen of the ongoing AFCON, qualifying as a best third team from Group E after their shock victory over Tunisia, who were eliminated in the group stages.
But a big talking point was Shalulile’s lack of goals, as he had been earmarked as their main weapon at the AFCON.
Muzeu said the Mamelodi Sundowns star shouldn’t be judged on his scoreless AFCON, and contributes much more than just goals to the Brave Warriors.
“You know in football you do good, they say all the good things and if you do only one mistake they go behind your back,” Muzeu told iDiski Times.
“So Peter, as I know him, the tournament was not good to him but he did what he can do, his best. It is all about trusting in God and he trusted in God and everything went the way it went.
“We cannot blame anyone, it is a team sport and he will bounce back. It is just that he could not score. Everyone saw what he was contributing to the team and most people just want goals and they don’t see the bigger picture.
“But all in all, I’d say he had a good tournament and goals will come.”
