Chiefs Lucky Baloyi to be out

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Lucky Baloyi will undergo a scan this week on a possibly serious knee injury suffered in Saturday’s 3-0 win over Moroka Swallows at FNB Stadium.
Baloyi had to be taken off in the second half after a challenge with Swallows’ captain Lefa Tsutsulupa.
Chiefs coach Vladimir Vermezovic bemoaned the fact no action was taken for what he described as “the most dangerous challenge of the game” while six of his players were booked for other offences.
But he also admitted the tackle by Tsutsulupa on Baloyi “was not intentional”.
“It looks bad,” added the Serbian coach about the condition of Baloyi’s knee. “He has had some problems with his knees before. We’ll wait and see.”
Baloyi has made a strong impression in his first full season with Chiefs, particularly in a defensive midfield role.
The 20-year-old Baloyi has scored twice in 13 starts for Chiefs in all official competition this season.(www.supersport.com).
This could prove to be a blow to Kaizer Chiefs, however Vladmir's response seemed defensive and more or less a press release.It's not  a new stunt between Chiefs and Swallows to have   “unintentional” injuries but this is proving costly to new stars who want to make the game worth watching. Vladmir seems to be aware but highly ignorant in terming the game“the most dangerous challenge of the game”
