Cape Town City midfielder Thabo Nodada has made a remarkable comeback to competitive football, ending a lengthy 229-day spell on the sidelines due to injury. The 29-year-old’s last appearance came in a goalless draw against Kaizer Chiefs in March, where he played a crucial role before being forced to take an extended break.

Nodada made his long-awaited return during City’s hard-fought 1-0 victory over Polokwane City at Athlone Stadium, coming off the bench. The match marked a significant milestone for both the player and the club, as his return injects much-needed energy and experience into the midfield.

For the Citizens, having Nodada back is a timely boost. Known for his tenacity, work ethic, and leadership on the field, the midfielder’s presence could prove pivotal as Cape Town City navigates a busy schedule.

Nodada, who has been a stalwart for Cape Town City since joining the club, will now focus on regaining full match fitness. Fans will be eager to see him back to his best as he looks to help the team climb up the Betway Premiership table and push for silverware.

With his resilience and determination shining through, Nodada’s return is a testament to his character and sets the stage for what could be an impactful second half of the season.
