However‚ it seems likely that City coach Benni McCarthy‚ despite his subsequent protestations that he was trying to act as a peacemaker‚ will be among those charged‚ as the videos appear to show him having been heavily involved.
“I’m getting video clips in and match commissioner’s reports and everything like that‚” Becker told TimesLIVE on Tuesday morning.
“So the investigation in that has already started. I will review the video evidence.”
The incident was sparked when United defender Rushine de Reuck received a second yellow card‚ and consequent red card and dismissal from referee Kulasande Qongqo‚ five minutes into injury time.
As De Reuck was heading for the tunnel‚ City assistant-coach Ryaan Jacobs also received his marching orders for words spoken. He entered the tunnel ahead of De Reuck.
