MP Black Aces captain Esau Mtsweni says that it was the planning beforehand that resulted in his side being promoted to the Absa Premiership for the 2013/14 season.

Aces earned promotion to the PSL on Wednesday night after a goalless draw against Chippa United.

The result means Aces are uncatchable at the top of the mini-league Promotion/Relegation play-offs, but it was the planning which made it possible according to the Mpumalanga captain.

“I am happy we have done it. I am happy for my boys, the technical team and the management as well,” said Mtsweni.

“We have been waiting for this and we planned. Everything works according to plan.

“People in Mpumalanga here we are and thank you for your support.”
