Rockets stun Chiefs in Nedbank Cup

SuperSport



TS Galaxy claimed the big scalp of Kaizer Chiefs once more in the Nedbank Cup after running out 1-0 victors at the FNB Stadium on Saturday evening to advance to the round of 16.

Augustine Chidi Kwem scored the only goal of the game in the 54th minute as the Rockets produced another shock result against Amakhosi, having beaten them in the 2019 final.

Chiefs have now exited the tournament at the first hurdle in two successive seasons after being knocked out by Richards Bay in the round of 32 last year.

Stuart Baxter's side almost got off to the perfect start at Soccer City, though; when Keagan Dolly's second-minute corner was met by Daniel Cardoso, who saw his header go just wide of the left post.

In the end, one goal was enough to see off the challenge of the Soweto giants, with Galaxy marching on in the competition.
