CAPE TOWN SPURS THE RETURN<br /> <br />  Morne Nel scored the lone goal seven minutes after Spurs were brought<br /> down to 10-men when Ashley Cupido was shown a dubious red card by<br /> referee Michael Mosemeng. The win solidifies Spurs&#39; first-place position on<br /> the PSL Promotion/Relegation Playoffs log standings.<br />  The Mother City outfit have now played three playoff matches, winning each<br /> fixture with a 1-0 scoreline, putting Shaun Bartlett&#39;s side on 9 points ahead of<br /> Maritzburg (3 points) and Casric (0 points).<br />  The defeat for Casric ends their quest for promotion to the DStv Premiership<br /> as they now have one fixture against Maritzburg remaining on Saturday. A<br /> draw or loss for Maritzburg will see Spurs secure their promotion to South<br /> Africa&#39;s top flight.<br />  Fadlu Davids&#39;s Team of Choice will have to beat Casric to ensure their fight for<br /> promotion can go to the final match against Spurs next Wednesday at the<br /> Harry Gwala Stadium.<br />  Maritzburg will have to win all their remaining matches against Casric and<br /> Spurs to keep alive their hopes of advancing to the Premiership on goal<br /> difference ahead of Bartlett & charges.
