Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>With nine games remaining, Green Mamba will spend the whole week on top of the MTN league \u2018tree\u2019 following Saturday\u2019s 1-0 win over relegation threatened Manzini Wanderers at the Prince of Wales Sports Ground.<\/b><\/p>\n

The \u2018Correctional Services\u2019 side will remain on top after the nearest challengers Young Buffaloes had their clash against Nsingizini Hotspurs called off on Sunday due to inclement weather.<\/p>\n

Ernest Mavuso\u2019s charges condemned Manzini Wanderers to an 11th defeat of a nightmarish season when Khethokuhle Mkhontfo scored in the 20th minute to ensure the green and white outfit recorded their seventh straight win and maintained pole position with 40 points.<\/p>\n

The 2018\/19 season Champions enjoy a four-point lead having played a game more than \u2018Amathole Ezinyathi\u2019. \u2018WEEK 17\u2019 began with the police side, Royal Leopard pushing Tambuti into relegation with a 3-1 trashing on Thursday at the Prince of Wales Sports Ground.<\/p>\n

Then on Friday, Mbabane Swallows massacred bottom loggers 4-0 at the King Sobhuza II Memorial Stadium. Mbabane Highlanders maintained the third position after a 2-1 win over Madlenya FC on Saturday following Fabrice Mopina scoring his first goal since joining the Capital City giants from Wanderers and Musa Dlamini netting the winner in the 84th minute.<\/p>\n
