While most football fans in South Africa are questioning Gomes’ decision, Mhango refused to be drawn into what happened. Fans tagged the speedy forward in their tweet about Gomes and that of Keene, however the player simply stayed out of it.
I got one job and that’s to play football in the pitch and not to debate about it.
