Black Leopards 2-1 Venda Football Academy

Black Leopards were officially relegated to the ABC Motsepe League despite securing a 2-1 victory over Venda Football Academy at the Thohoyandou Stadium.

The visiting team pulled the first punch a little in the opening-quarter courtesy of Lerato Mofokeng, but Mwape Musonda and Goodman Chirwa.

Leopards have now been relegated with one game to spare.

Milford FC made it three wins on the bounce and remained in second spot on the table following a late 2-0 victory over the University of Pretoria.

After a score-less opening period, the Nedbank Cup semi-finalists got on the front-foot following a well-taken finish by key striker Bulelani Sigomoshe with the visitors caught wanting at the back.

AmaTuks were unable to engineer a response and succumbed again after Siphosethu Ndlaba as the home team bagged a third successive win to keep their play-off hopes on track.

Casric Stars bagged successive wins to cement their position in the top-five on the table courtesy of a late 2-0 victory over Upington City at the Mxolisi Dicky Jacobs.

As no goals were recorded in the first stanza, the game sprung to gear albeit in the latter exchanges when Zebulon Mtsweni managed to find the back of the net.

Bafana Ba Gucci succumbed to more threats the believers piled on and Siphamandla Mlilo lined-up 12-yards in the six-yard box following a coming-together and riffled the net.
