Speaking to SowetanLIve, Galaxy spokesperson Ronny Moyo said the club, who issued court papers to Sundowns, was grateful for the police.

Moyo said:

"It is common practice that police in their respective units and functions are assembled with any events that amass people; they form part of the security cluster like any other stakeholders. The police we all saw remained the Public Order Police (PoP); they came as usual to boost the stewards that kept guard on the field. Nothing new on that one."
