Old Grey and FC Ravens have secured their spots in the SAFA Eastern Cape ABC Motsepe League Provincial Playoffs following a final weekend of amateur league action.
Old Grey played out to a 1-1 draw against Seven Stars on Saturday afternoon at the Police Field in Gqeberha. While they didn’t claim maximum points on the day, the result was enough to see them finish at the summit of the Coastal Stream.
The race for the top spot went down to the wire, with Old Grey finishing level on 38 points with second-placed Komani United, a side owned by former Chippa United coach Thabo September. However, Old Grey’s clinical efficiency throughout the season proved to be the difference; their superior goal difference of +23 trumped Komani’s +15.
Meanwhile, in the Inland Stream, FC Ravens left nothing to chance. They dismantled Mighty Eagles with a convincing 4-1 victory at the Mphuthumi Mafumbatha Stadium in Bizana on Saturday.
Ravens finished their impressive campaign with 45 points from 18 matches, establishing a comfortable five-point cushion over runners-up SA Spear of the Nation.
The stage is now set for a showdown between the two stream winners. Old Grey and FC Ravens will clash in the provincial playoffs to be crowned the overall Eastern Cape champions.
The winner of this playoff will represent the Eastern Cape at the SAFA ABC Motsepe League National Playoffs.
Should the provincial winner reach the final of the national playoffs, they will earn automatic promotion to the Motsepe Foundation Championship.
Below are this weekend’s 2025/26 ABC Motsepe League campaign results.
