Spwaking to the Chronicle, National Football Association of Swaziland general-secretary Frederick Mngomezulu said the better of the two teams o the day should win.

“We have only heard or read about it through the media, nothing official has come to us, but I just want to be clear that those claims will not affect us in any manner whatsoever because we are not part of this, Swaziland is clean in all this drama,” said Mngomezulu.

“We want to believe the results on the pitch will be coming from the workmanship of either team’s players, not influenced in any way and that both teams accept the outcome.”
