The Soweto Giants hoped that they will be joining Cape Town City, Baroka and the league champions Mamelodi Sundowns since their last win in 2015, pity that did not happen as TS Galaxy claimed the glory.
Kaizer Chiefs fans, had hope that since they did not make it in the Absa Premier League, they they would win the Nedbank Cup.
During the first half TS Galaxy created chances and opportunities as they were showing hunger for a goal.
A penalty was given to TS Galaxy as Lerato Lepasa who managed to score a goal for his team. TS Galaxy registered their name on the scoreboard and ended the match with 0-1.
To all those @KaizerChiefs fans calling for the sacking of the coach, you’re deluding yourselves. The clubs problems run much deeper than the coach. Which club would have done better with this squad? #NedbackCupFinal2019
