Sunday Tribune
|March 08, 2026
TS Galaxy assistant coach Bernard Parker has set his sights on winning his first medal since retiring from professional football, believing The Rockets have been handed a rare opportunity in this season’s Nedbank Cup.
Galaxy host amateur side Jacksa Spears at Solomon Mahlangu Stadium this afternoon with a place in the semifinals at stake.
With defending champions Kaizer Chiefs, as well as Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates already eliminated from the tournament, Parker believes Galaxy now have a genuine chance to go all the way.
However, the former Bafana Bafana striker insists the Rockets will not allow themselves to underestimate their lower-league opponents.
“We have done our homework, they have, and we all know what can happen and what has happened in the past in the Nedbank Cup,” Parker said.
“In the cup we are also well aware that we have a strong possibility of going all the way to the final.
