Sydney ¨C Jeonbuk Motors coach Gus Poyet slammed the organization of the Asian Champions League Two on Wednesday ahead of his team¡¯s quarterfinal second leg against Sydney FC, saying the second-tier continental club tournament was not worth the bother.
Chief among the former Uruguay midfielder¡¯s many gripes was the forced change of venue to a stadium two hours away for the first leg in South Korea, which Sydney FC won 2-0, because the pitch at Jeonbuk¡¯s stadium was ruled sub-par.
Poyet, who has coached clubs in England, Greece, France and China, maintained the decision was ¡°really unfair and stupid¡± and said he was keen to see the quality of the surface at the Sydney Football Stadium for Thursday¡¯s second leg.
