Stanley Nwabali Shines Bright for Chippa United in Nedbank Cup Victory

Chippa United's first-choice goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali, is beaming with joy after his team secured a convincing 2-0 victory against TS Galaxy FC in a cup tie at Mbombela Stadium, Nelspruit, on Sunday.

Goals from Bienvenu Eva Nga and Roscoe Pietersen in each half propelled the visitors to a triumphant road win, securing their progression to the next stage of the Nedbank Cup.

Despite not featuring in their recent PSL home win over Kaizer Chiefs, Nwabali took to his Instagram page on Monday to express his excitement, stating, "This is my office!! Another clean sheet in the bag, a back-to-back Nedbank Cup match win prior to great team performance. Onto the next round! Chilli boys."

The former Enyimba shot-stopper, who also kept a clean sheet in their previous PSL victory over Cape Town Spurs, continues to showcase his exceptional talent and dedication to his craft.

Nwabali's journey to prominence has been characterized by perseverance and hard work, culminating in his breakthrough on the international stage. Despite a stint in the Nigeria Premier Football League, it was his standout performances at the 2023 AFCON that earned him recognition as a reliable goalkeeper.

Living his dream at Chippa United, Nwabali remains unfazed by past challenges, including threats from South African fans following his heroics in denying Bafana Bafana passage to the 2023 AFCON final.

His story serves as a testament to the power of determination and resilience, proving that with dedication and perseverance, dreams can indeed become a reality.
