Antipas sets sight on league

League crown.
With eight games left, the Mighty Bulls lead the marathon and are on cloud nine after hoisting the BancABC Cup beating Highlanders last week 1-0.

Tomorrow the defending champions take on Chicken Inn at Motor Action Sports Club.
Antipas feels he has the arsenal to put a strong fight for the league title.
“We do not need to get carried away by our win over Highlanders in the cup final, as it’s water under the bridge and focus of next assignments,” Antipas said.

Antipas feels targeting the remaining 24 points would be asking too much from the players and they would take each game as it comes.
On their pending explosive clash against Dynamos in Week 28, Antipas said the titanic battle could be the title decider.
Antipas added that what happens between Week 23 and Week 27 will also shape the destiny of the league title race.

On the new Mbada tournament, to be launched in the capital tonight, Antipas said they would focus on each game and believes the prize money for the winner is enough motivation.
“Given that we have the crucial eight league matches remaining plus the Mbada tournament, I shall rotate the players to give everyone game time,” said Antipas.
In the run up to the Premiership break, Mighty Bulls collected eight points out of possible 15.

Motor Action’ last league match before the break was a goalless draw against Zimbabwe Saints at Barbourfields.
Tomorrow the Mighty Bulls will be missing the services of rightback Passmore Bernard, Isaac Masame and Conrad Whitby due to suspensions.
Bulawayo side Chicken Inn, who have surprised even themselves, occupy fifth place with 33 points on the latest log standings.

Chicken Inn have been poor travelers in their debut season, as they have amassed 12 points from 11 games on the road.
Meanwhile, one of the longest serving Motor Action players, midfielder Edward Tembo has been ruled out for the remainder of the season.
Tembo suffered a knee injury in April during a league clash against Chicken Inn in Bulawayo. Yesterday, he aggravated the knee injury during a friendly match against Northern Region Division One side

Harare City at Motor Action Sports Club.
