Mamelodi Sundowns have been crowned 2018/19 Absa Premiership champions.
Stars have been relegated to the National First Division , while Maritzburg United will contest the promotion-relegation playoffs.
As expected, Downs came flying out of the starting traps and put the relegation-threatened Stars under immense pressure in the opening 30 minutes. Kekana was the next player to try his luck at goal, just two minutes later, but his shot from a tight angle was saved well by Badra Sangare in the Stars goal.
After weathering the storm, Stars began to create some noteworthy chances of their own. However, they were unable to capitalise as Harris Tchilimbou headed just wide from Nyiko Mobbie's excellent cross, before Onyango pulled of a two great saves to deny Sibusiso Hlubi and Relebogile Mokhuoane. The hosts thought they had scored in the 59th minute but the goal was ruled out for a handball by Hlubi in the build up, while Makhaula's deflected shot was denied by the impressive Onyango on the hour mark.
