Galaxy completed a double over the army side which moves the leaders five points clear of second placed Township Rollers with nine games before the curtain comes down on the season. However, the diamond miners had to do it the hard way against BDF XI after trailing 1-0 at the break. Oratile Taunyane broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute but soon after the break, Lesagaripa levelled the scores through forward Daniel Msendami.

Galaxy are back in action against Morupule Wanderers on Saturday while Rollers face a tough task against Gaborone United in the Gaborone derby.
