Chicken Inn 0-0 CAPS United (60 mins)
CHICKEN Inn and CAPS United remain locked at 0-0 after 60 minutes of their Castle Lager Premier Soccer League encounter at Barbourfields Stadium, with both sides still searching for the breakthrough.
The hosts made two changes at the start of the second half in a bid to inject fresh energy into their attack. Lynoth Chikuwa was replaced by Man Hapmo, while Rahim Katinji made way for Innocent Masiwa.
Despite the substitutions, CAPS United have continued to look dangerous going forward and have enjoyed some promising moments in the opening stages of the second half.
In the 52nd minute, the visitors delivered two threatening crosses into the penalty area in quick succession, but the Chicken Inn defence remained composed and dealt effectively with both deliveries.
CAPS United came closest to breaking the deadlock two minutes later when Richard Hachiro produced a superb pass to Takunda Benhura, sending him into a promising position inside the box.
However, with the goal at his mercy, Benhura failed to hit the target, squandering a golden opportunity to give the visitors the lead.
The match remains finely balanced, with neither side able to convert their chances despite periods of sustained pressure.
