Substitute, Felix Badenhorst, scored an equaliser on 90+4 minutes, against Uthongathi at UJ Soweto Campus yesterday afternoon.

Uthongathi’s Celimpilo Ngema caught the Mbombela defence napping in the fourth minute of the match to put his side 1-0 up.
The 1-1 draw earned Tingwenyama a single log point and left them in 13th place on the log with 28 points. TS Sporting also have 28 points but have an inferior goal difference and remain in 14th place.

Royal Eagles, on 19 points and with a goal difference of -20, will finish 16th and last.

Decide Chauke scored from the edge of the box in the 38th minute on Tuesday. It seemed that, despite missing chances to increase the lead, they were on track for victory.
