Black Leopards’ uphill battle
Thohoyandou-based Black Leopards FC continue with the team’s campaign to earn promotion into the paid ranks of the Premier Soccer League (PSL).
The Limpopo team was expected to win the play-offs to join Limpopo homeboys Baroka FC and Polokwane City in the PSL.
So far it’s looking good for Black Leopards’s campaign, after a hard-fought 2-all draw with Jomo Cosmos FC in Gateng last weekend.
Black Leopards FC has an away fixture against Platinum Stars at Moruleng Stadium on Saturday 26 May.
The Venda boys top the three-team round-robin league log at four points, following a win against Platinum Stars FC, and the draw against Jomo Cosmos FC.
Jomo Cosmos FC is at number two with one point, while Platinum Stars FC is third at zero points.
The last fixture for Black Leopards FC would be against Jomo Cosmos and Thohoyandou Stadium on Wednesday 30 May, a fixture which was expected to be the decider between the two teams as to which team campaigns in the PSL next season.
Jomo Cosmos FC was scheduled to host Platinum Stars on Saturday 2 June.
