The Premier Soccer League has confirmed that the case involving Bidvest Wits forward Gabadinho Mhango and AmaZulu midfielder Michael Morton, set for deliberation before the disciplinary committee, has been postponed.

Mhango and Morton were involved in an off-the-ball scuffle, which saw the Malawian spit in the face of the former Orlando Pirates man, and resulted in Morton being sent off for retaliating.

AmaZulu coach Cavin Johnson confirmed that the case has been postponed, following Usuthu’s  3-2 loss against Polokwane City in their Absa Premiership encounter on Wednesday night.

“That was postponed. It has been postponed to the 26th,” he said in post-match comments.

Mhango has been charged with misconduct after the PSL encounter on September 20 in Umlazi, while Morton is serving a two-match ban for his involvement in the incident.

“Mr Mhango has been charged with misconduct for allegedly offending the dignity of Amazulu FC player, Michael Morton, following an alleged spitting incident on 20 September 2017,” the PSL said in a statement.
