Sanele Barns scored the only goal of the game as South African second-tier side TS Galaxy defeated Madagascar’s CNaPS Sport 1-0 in their Caf Confederation Cup First Round bout on Sunday.
Barns opened the scoring in the fifth minute as the hosts started the match strongly at Mbombela Stadium, although they were tested as they sought to preserve their lead for the rest of the contest.
Sihle Nduli was replaced with a broken wrist midway through the second half—evidence of the tenacity with which the visitors chased an equaliser—but National First Division side Galaxy held on for a famous victory.
