New Signings Help Galaxy Edge Diplomat FC

Galaxy beat visiting Diplomat FC 2-0 in the first leg of the CAF Champions League preliminary round played at the National Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Two second half goals from Wendell Rudath and Lucky Mokoena who were making their debut ensured the Galaxy Stars are a foot into the next round ahead of the second leg to be played this weekend in Cameroon.

Galaxy welcomed a rather less threatening opponent in Diplomat FC of Central African Republic as the home team returned to the Africa's inter-club competition for the second successive year. Galaxy's new head coach, Morena Ramoreboli was on the technical bench for the first time.
