Felda United and Johor FC both escaped relegation from the Malaysia Super League in a dramatic final day of the campaign on Saturday evening.
Heading into the round just two points above the third and final relegation play-off spot, Felda recorded a 2-1 win at Kedah at the Darul Aman Stadium to guarantee their top-flight status for another season.
Mickael Antoine-Curier opened the scoring for the Settlers a minute after the half-hour mark, before Malaysia international Yong Kuong Yong doubled their lead eight minutes later.
Khyril Muhymeen Zambri pulled one back for Kedah in the 63rd minute but Felda ultimately held on for the crucial win.
Johor FC also stayed up on the final day of the season with a 1-0 victory over runners-up LIONSXII, courtesy of Shahrizal Saad's deflected first-half strike, while T-Team ended the campaign in eighth after falling to a 2-1 defeat to PKNS FC.
Champions Kelantan capped off a wonderful season with a 3-1 win over Sarawak at the Sultan Mohammad IV Stadium.
Badri Radzi opened the scoring for the hosts in the 61st minute and within six minutes, the Red Warriors found themselves three goals to the good after a quick-fire brace from Norfarhan Muhammad.
Sarawak pulled one back in the 69th minute through Hairol Mokhtar but it proved too little too late, meaning Robert Alberts' charges will now have to fight for their Super League status via the play-offs.
Elsewhere, a brace from Francis Forkey Doe and an Ahmad Nordin Alias strike helped Terengganu to a 3-0 win over Selangor, while Slovak star Michal Kubala grabbed a brace in Perak's 5-2 win over basement club Kuala Lumpur.
Finally, Sabah, who finished second from bottom, gained some momentum heading into next week's play-offs with a 3-1 win over Negri Sembilan.
