Pupuma stated that their match against Galaxy demonstrated they can compete effectively with PSL teams.
Dr. Xanti Pupuma has urged his team to now concentrate on their promotion chances after being eliminated from the Nedbank Cup by TS Galaxy.
Milford FC lost 4-3 in a penalty shootout at Solomon Mahlangu Stadium yesterday after ending regulation time in a 1-1 draw.
The team is currently leading the Motsepe Foundation Championship on goal difference ahead of Kruger United, aiming for success in the National First Division.
“I’m not frustrated about being knocked out. This allows us to focus more on promotion, which we hope to achieve in the end,” he said on SuperSport TV after the defeat to TS Galaxy.
“We had plenty of opportunities to finish the game within 90 minutes.
“However, it’s been a long season.
“We will certainly take many positives from this tournament. Even in the game against Galaxy, I believe the players realize they can compete with the Betway Premiership teams at the required level.”
