Former league champions, Dynamos, are sailing with determination towards the 2009 championship title removing all skepticism of their quest to reclaim their pride lost to Monomotapa, last season.
A 4-0 victory over struggling Beitbridge side, Underhill, at Rufaro stadium was enough evidence that DeMbare will not be out for any compromise, which will put them under pressure of claiming the title, come end of season.
But the pressure appears inevitable and will not be shaken off just by their winning streak alone, as a stubborn second placed Gunners continue to keep track of them, with victories each week.
Moses Chunga’s charges have remained consistent in the race for the prestigious title, giving Bambo all the reason to boasts of his side.
They beat Bulawayo giants, Highlanders, 1-0 in week 16 of the top flight football at Gwanzura stadium, last Saturday. Their newboy, Willard Katsande, acquired from Highway displayed some entertaining football the rest of the afternoon together with midfielder Tapiwa Mangezi and Ramson Zhuwawo.
Zhuwawo scored the solitary goal that rapped a bad week for the Bosso team, which was still mourning the death of their junior coach and former player, Themba Nkiwane.
Goalkeeper, Tafadzwa Dube, must have frustrated Bosso strikers who did all they could to attack for an equalizer as he continued to Gunners’ goal brilliantly, the rest of the afternoon.
Gunners are four points behind the league leaders and if both teams are not to drop points any time soon, Bambo and his charges will need to keep their winning form until week 29, when they face Elvis Chiweshe and his charges.
But for now, any compromising performance of the top two teams will see them lose their position to other competing teams, which will certainly not be left out in the battle for honors.
Caps United won 1-0 against Hwange at the Colliery, as the three points guaranteed them a third place ahead of Lengthens who were into a goalless draw against Black Rhinos.
Former Kiglon captain, Tawanda Nyamandwe, announced his arrival at Caps United with a goal that gave Lloyd Chitembwe’s team a good toss for the long tiresome journey back to the capital, from Hwange.
Their former player, Limited Chikafa, turned out for Shooting Stars, last weekend as his new side won 1-0 against Kiglon.
Reigning champions, Monomotapa, appear to be losing hope of successfully defending their title. They appear to be shifting their attention more to the African safari as their performance together with their position on the log table give much skepticism than confidence that they will successfully defend their title, this year.
They did not fulfill their week 16 fixture, against Highway last weekend as they travelled to Malaysia for some friendly matches, in preparation of their MTN Champions league match against, Etoile Du Sahel, in Harare, this weekend.
Psl secretary general, Kennedy Ndebele, revealed that they did not give them the green-light to skip their match and so Highway may be lucky to be awarded the three points.
Motor Action saw their twelfth draw of the season against Eagles, in a goalless encounter both coaches, Jostein Mathuthu (Motor Action) and Bigboy Mawiwi (Eagles) were out to give their new sides a taste of victory. Bantu Rovers won 2-0 against Njube Sundowns, at Barbourfields stadium.
