Gaborone United (GU) sealed the title on Saturday afternoon with one round of matches left to play.

Matjimenyenga's hopes of winning the trophy were diminished following their 1-1 draw with Morupule Wanderers last Wednesday. Elias Chinyemba is however pleased with the team's overall performance this season. Chinyemba expressed his satisfaction with the players and fans' support.

"We found it difficult to hold our opponents, particularly in the midfield because they attacked frequently," Chinyemba said.
