Magesi’s coach acknowledges that his team is still not safe from relegation and stressed the importance of working harder to build more confidence in order to finish the season strong. Owen Da Gama’s side earned a 1-0 victory over Stellenbosch FC, which moved them up to 10th place in the league standings. Thabang Sibanyoni’s second-half goal proved to be the difference, helping the team rise to this remarkable comeback.
Why Magesi FC is Still in Danger
Magesi FC’s impressive home form continued with a hard-earned 1-0 win over Stellenbosch FC in the Betway Premiership on Saturday. Thabang Sibanyoni’s second-half goal ensured their fifth consecutive home victory at Seshego Stadium.
Despite advancing to 11th place with 26 points, coach Owen Da Gama remains cautious. “We’re not thinking about the top eight right now,” he said. “Our main focus is avoiding relegation. Things can shift quickly—just two wins for teams below us, and we could be in trouble again.”
With challenging matches against Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates ahead, Da Gama stressed the importance of taking it one game at a time. “We’re not looking too far ahead. Every match is a battle for survival. We’ll keep pushing, step by step.”
