Surprise Dismissal Nedbank Cup Finalists Axe Coach Days Before Crucial Match

Beganovic guided Galaxy to their second Nedbank Cup final. They are scheduled to meet Durban City at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on 2 May.

However, he will not occupy the bench. Since the club has not issued any statement on the issue, it remains uncertain who will step in. That said, Bernard Parker, the former Kaizer Chiefs and Bafana Bafana forward, might advance from his role as assistant coach.

Galaxy's concerning streak in the league has left them vulnerable to relegation risks. Still, they sit five points clear of the play-off spot and six points ahead of Orbit College, who hold the direct relegation position.

Though it appears improbable that The Rockets will drop down, an important fixture against fellow strugglers Magesi FC awaits on Sunday. As a result, Sukazi has chosen to intervene.

Beganovic succeeded Sead Ramovic in November 2024, after his own promotion from assistant coach. Yet, with just one point earned from the past 30 on offer, namely a draw versus Stellenbosch FC, he has now been relieved of his duties.

Galaxy also face upcoming league encounters with another bottom-side team Marumo Gallants away, Chippa United at home, ambitious leaders Mamelodi Sundowns at home, and Lamontville Golden Arrows away.
