SuperSport United escaped relegation playoffs after drawing 1-1 with Lamontville Golden Arrows. The teams finished a match that stopped three months ago at halftime. Players returned to complete the final 45 minutes with the same 1-1 score from before. United needed only a tie to avoid the dangerous playoff zone. The result moved them to 27 points and saved their season.

The Tshwane team played very defensively during the second half. Five defenders stayed back to protect their goal area. Golden Arrows controlled most of the action and created several scoring chances. Ricardo Goss made saves to keep United safe from defeat. SuperSport showed no interest in attacking as they protected their important point.

Cape Town City finished with worse goal difference numbers and dropped into playoff danger. City recorded minus 16 goals compared to United's minus 12 total. Three teams will fight for promotion spots through playoff matches. Casric Stars and ORBIT College join Cape Town City in the playoff competition. Legal disputes between other clubs might delay or cancel the playoff tournament.
