Not widely reported after Melbourne Victory’s loss to Beijing Guoan on Wednesday night were the comments from Kevin Muscat.
After the severely undermanned Victory managed just one goal (a Muscat penalty) in the five matches thus far, and had just struggled to a nil-all draw before less than 7,000 fans, Muscat was quizzed about his future, along with the match and crowd.
His response might just be tainted with sour grapes.
Muscat also fired a shot at the quality of the competition, saying the tournament’s administrators needed to toughen up on gamesmanship.
“To be honest, playing in Asia, is not all that enjoyable,” he said.
“People going down left, right and centre, stalling for time. It’s not that enjoyable playing in the Champions League.
“I think it’s evident for people to see. Being involved in it and watching it I can understand why people don’t come and watch. People going down … it just seems that authorities can’t take control.”
Now Adelaide United are obviously quality reds. More fortified, perhaps?
