TS Galaxy news

South Africa find themselves in seemingly challenging Group B at the continental tournament alongside Egypt, Angola and Zimbabwe. Navigating through this pool will be crucial if they are to reach the knockout rounds. They are determined to improve on their previous campaign, where they secured a bronze medal. However, doubts have surfaced after an experienced coach questioned the squad selected by the Belgian tactician. That scrutiny has added extra pressure on the team to prove their capabilities on the big stage.

As we reach the halfway mark of another PSL season, old failings are emerging for the Glamour Boys as they struggle to find cohesion in the final third. Is this a recruitment problem, a tactical issue or perhaps a complex combination of both?

The Glamour Boys have had a strong run this season across all competitions after the signings they made at the end of the 2024/25 campaign. A win against TS Galaxy on Sunday will see them end the year with just two points behind leaders and traditional rivals Orlando Pirates, who have been doing quite well under Abdeslam Ouaddou. But a disappointing draw with Chippa has deflated fan expectations.

The Glamour Boys faced the Chilli Boys, hoping to get maximum points at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth on Wednesday night. However, it turned out to be a tough assignment against the relegation-threatened hosts who were not in the mood to lose. Amakhosi have now lost ground in their bid to win the title in the ongoing campaign.

The Premier Soccer League campaign is taking shape, and before the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals break, the favourites to win the race have been picked out. A PSL winner has tipped his former side as one of those with a high probability of conquering the league. However, the Soweto giants, despite their promising run so far, have been ruled out.

Amakhosi endured a frustrating evening as they were held to a goalless stalemate by bottom‑placed Chippa United at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Gqeberha on Wednesday, December 3. Chiefs controlled large spells of possession and carved out chances but failed to convert, leaving them to settle for a single point in their Premier Soccer League away fixture.

The majority of the teams are working hard to realise their objectives, with the Premier Soccer League table taking shape ahead of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) break scheduled from late December to mid-January next year. One of the sides that have been doing well are Babina Noko, who are surprising many with their run in the league.

The Glamour Boys made the trip to Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Gqeberha on Wednesday, December 3, locking horns with the struggling Chilli Boys in a crucial league clash. Having last featured in PSL action before the international break, Chiefs returned to domestic duty after balancing the demands of their ongoing CAF Confederation Cup campaign.

The towering centre forward stamped his authority in a nationwide tournament. The Urban Warriors product has given a glimpse of what he could offer the Tshwane giants. Meanwhile, Bucs are close to reinforcing their squad with the signing of a talented defender after losing Mbokazi.

The Glamour Boys have been away from domestic action for the last two weeks, doing battle in continental football, where they had little success. Chiefs only managed a solitary point from a possible six in their two CAF Confederations Cup matches against Egyptian opponents.

Despite taking the lead, Chiefs allowed their opponents to fight back in a game held at Thorpe Arch Training Ground. After the game, Amakhosi now shifts their focus to the next encounter against a Championship outfit. The London-based club is home to South Africa's African champion and has already earned a call-up from Hugo Broos.

The 31-year-old has been one of the most trusted figures at the back in Chiefs’ continental campaign, making five appearances and completing the full 90 minutes in both group-stage clashes against Al Masry and Zamalek. The consistent game time has boosted his confidence, and he’s delighted to be trusted with such responsibility—embracing the pressure, gaining valuable lessons and experience. However, he’s fully aware that turning these performances into crucial points remains a priority.

After back-to-back CAF Confederation Cup games, Amakhosi return to domestic assignments as a Premier Soccer League game awaits them on Wednesday. Should the Glamour Boys win their two games before the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals break, they will be level with arch-rivals Orlando Pirates at the top of the PSL table. The Sea Robbers overtook Mamelodi Sundowns after beating Durban City.
