While the result hurt the team and their supporters, some disgruntled fans lamented Monyane’s failed bicycle kick attempt late in the match, insisting that had he kept things simpler, he could have scored or created the equaliser. WithChiefs set to face Stelliesin the Betway Premiership at FNB Stadium on Tuesday night (7.30pm), following the Nedbank Cup heartbreak that included the failed bicycle attempt, Monyane revealed what he made of the outside noise and where his confidence currently lies. “It’s football, it happens.
If it went in, it was going to be a great thing,” Monyane said. “A wise person once said, if you are going to try, you must fail big because you know that you are going to accomplish. So, it was a learning curve.” A former striker in his heyday before being converted into a right-back, Monyane said he will eventually hit the target as he continues to channel his poacher’s instinct.
