FC Hunters beat Tenax 2-1 at Rudhaka Stadium in Marondera yesterday
With Masvingo United and Manica Diamonds U-19 match ending goalles, it means FC Hunters go into the last day of the season with an unassailable lead.
FC Hunters take their points tally to 66, meaning that going into the last day of the season next week, neither Masvingo United (62) points and Tenax (61) will overtake them.
Meanwhile, in the league sponsors’ match of the month played at Ratings Arena in Middle Sabi on Saturday, Rusitu Tigers beat Tongogara 4-2 in the Chipinge Derby.
The match was a thrilling encounter, with Tongogara United fighting hard but ultimately falling short.
The match was a huge success, with the fanfare and entertainment provided by the league sponsor being a notch up.
Fans walked away with some prizes.
Top artistes, including Jah Master, wowed the appreciative Chipangayi crowd with well-polished musical acts.
Pacific Storm Marketing Manager Kudakwashe Chiutsi who also attended the match, said the idea remains the same — promoting football in marginalised communities.
The Eastern Region Soccer League has been vibrant this season, thanks to the sponsorship package that was on offer.
