TS Galaxy head coach Sead Ramovic has mourned the tragic loss of a female driver in the accident involving TS Galaxy’s team bus, saying it “was impossible” for his side to play just a day later.
The Rockets’ bus was involved in an accident on their way to Mbombela on Tuesday, and while none of their players and staff were injured, but the driver of the VW Polo vehicle involved, sadly passed away.
Galaxy then sent a request to the Premier Soccer League to postpone their DStv Premiership fixture against Mamelodi Sundowns on Wednesday, which has been granted.
“We lost our sister’s life. May her soul rest in eternal peace. It is very painful for us, her children and her family to lose a mother who was probably a wonderful human being. We are very sad and would like to express our sincere condolences to the family,” Ramovic told iDiski Times.
“It was impossible for us to play a game the next day. It would cause too much pain for the family to watch us play, it would mean we don’t care about the loss of their loved one.
“This is the most important thing and not soccer right now. We are thankful to the league for thinking about this and allowing the match to be postponed. It shows that our league also cares about human life.”
A new date for the fixture is yet to be confirmed.
