Ajax earn their first 2017 win
A moment of magic from Mark Mayambela helped Ajax Cape Town defeat Highlands Park in a relegation six-pointer at the Cape Town Stadium
A moment of magic from Mark Mayambela earned Ajax Cape Town their first win of 2017 as they defeated bottom side Highlands Park 1-0 in a relegation six-pointer at the Cape Town Stadium on Wednesday. The victory moves Ajax four points clear of Baroka FC in the relegation play-off position and ends a run of eight matches without a victory, although there was certainly plenty of nervousness to their play as they rode their luck at times. Highlands remain rooted to the foot of the table, but had their chances to get at least a point from the game in what was a disappointing night for former Urban Warriors coach Gordon Igesund.
