Maritzburg United will continue to play football in the top flight after finishing top of the relegation/promotion playoff standings.
The Team of Choice needed a draw to at least be sure of their place in next season's PSL campaign, but they did more than enough as eased past Royal Eagles on Wednesday.
Eric Tinkler's side survived automatic relegation from the PSL on the final day of the season, finishing 15th on the log table to book their place in the playoffs.
Now, after collecting nine points in three games, Maritzburg United opened a six-point gap between them and second-placed Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila.
