ZIMBABWE Saints FC were heavy losers in the Zifa Southern Region Division One league at the weekend as they suffered a 5-0 defeat at the hands of new side Adachi FC.
A brace from Brian Ndlovu and a goal each from Innocent Kutsanzira, Tawanda Zinaka, and Ranson Chingwara made sure Adachi won against Chikwata.
Zimbabwe Saints are second from bottom on the table with a single point from six games.
Adachi is third on the table with 15 points, three behind leaders ZPC Hwange who have collected 17 points.
ZPC Hwange was held to a goalless draw by Ratanang.
Interestingly, Adachi Football Club, bankrolled by Australia-based Adrian Mtungwazi who last year, through his company, Adachi Disability Services gave Zimbabwe Saints a US$30 000 financial injection before the formation of his own outfit this year.
Beefy has veteran former national team and Highlanders goalkeepers’ trainer Peter “Oxo” Nkomo and ex-Warriors midfielder Johannes Ngodzo.
