Struggling Premier Soccer League (PSL) club Bloemfontein Celtic said on Monday that they had fired coach Khabo Zondo.
Zondo, who also assists national coach Carlos Alberto Parreira, was axed a day after mid-table Celtic conceded three late goals to lose 3-1 at Moroka Swallows.
Black Leopards, bottom of the richest football championship in Africa, also reacted to a weekend loss by suspending coach Boebie Solomons, pending a hearing on Wednesday.
Based in Thohoyandou, Leopards have won just four of 20 matches in a league offering a R10-million first prize and are set to end bottom and be automatically relegated.
Last weekend, coach Gordon Igesund left struggling defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns after three consecutive league losses left the Pretoria outfit trailing pace-setters Ajax Cape Town by 18 points. — Sapa-AFP
