FC Ravens were crowned the Eastern Cape ABC Motsepe League champions after beating Old Grey 1-0 in the decider at the Sisa Dukashe Stadium in Mdantsane on Saturday afternoon.

This means the Bizana-based team will represent the province in the national playoffs.

It was a thunderous free kick from Ravens star player Samkelo Ngcungama just outside the Old Grey 18-yard area that proved to be the difference.

It was Ngcungama’s 12th goal in the league this season.

The teams were deadlocked at 0-0 at the break, a true reflection of what was an intensely contested first half.
