Former Gor Mahia manager Dylan Ker has done the unexpected and secured top-flight status for his South African side Black Leopards. At the time of his appointment, Leopards were deep in relegation trouble but Ker has managed to dig them out, albeit in the last game of the season.
Leopards made three changes from their 1-1 draw against AmaZulu, while City bid farewell to Teko Modise in his last game as a professional footballer.
Lidoda Duvha missed a golden chance for a seventh-minute lead after Khuliso Mudau failed to profit from the penalty spot.
City started pushing forward later on, but failed to overcome the Leopards defence who fought hard for every ball.
Thamsanqa Mkhize, responsible for conceding the early part, came close to the opener on 43 minutes but his effort went wide as the half drew to a close.
Changes ensued at either end during the break, as Ebrahim Seedat came on for City while Tshwarelo Bereng and Themba Ndlovu came on for Leopards.
Leeuwenburgh was finally beaten on 76 minutes after Isaac Masia capitalized on a through ball to find the back of the net.
