ALL roads lead to Emagumeni this Sunday as Highlanders square off against their ultimate bogey team, the mighty FC Platinum, in a Castle Lager Premier Soccer League showdown set to light up Barbourfields Stadium.
The stats don’t lie: since FC Platinum stormed into the top flight, they’ve bossed Bosso, chalking up 11 wins in 23 league clashes. Highlanders have only managed six victories, and last season’s double defeat — 2–0 in Zvishavane and 1–0 at Barbourfields — still stings for the black and white faithful.
This time, Bosso fans are daring to dream. With a fired-up squad and home advantage, could this finally be the day they turn the tables on the four-time champions?
HOW THEY LINE UP:
Highlanders XI:
R. Muza; T. Dube, A. Ndlovu, M. Mushore, M. Ncube; R. Sibanda, M. Hativagoni, B. Ncube, M. Mushore; N. Rauzhi, L. Mutumbi
FC Platinum XI:
D. Bizabani; T. Ndlovu, N. Nyasulu, T. Jubani, M. Ndlovu; D. Mhindirira, B. Banda, H. Magaya, T. Ngwenya; J. Selemani, O. Bhebhe
All eyes will be on the battle in midfield and whether Bosso can shut down the engine room of Platinum’s slick passing game. With pride, points, and bragging rights on the line — this one’s not to be missed!
Will Bosso break the curse or will Platinum flex their muscle yet again?
Kick-off: Sunday, 3PM. Barbourfields. Be there!
