FIGA’S ‘RICH BOYS’ ESCAPE DSTV PREM CHOP

MBABANE – Four unanswered strikes were enough to help Eswatini export’s team Justice Figuareido’s Richards Bay escape relegation in South Africa’s money-spinning DStv Premiership.

The ‘Natal Rich Boys’, as Richards Bay are fondly known, took on Baroka in a crunch play-offs finale at King Zwelithini Stadium in Durban yesterday.  Richards finished on top of a three-team group with eight points to escape the chop. The Natal Rich Boys just needed a point to guarantee their place in the DStv Premiership in the upcoming season. Their closest challengers, University of Pretoria finished three points behind. Eswatini’s Justice ‘Figa’ Figuareido was introduced in the 67th  minute. Despite not scoring a goal, Figuareido used his football dribbling and controlling skills for 23 minutes to help the team seal victory.
