adminMonomotapa in a Castle Lager Premier league match at the Colliery yesterday.
The gifted midfielder justified his recent call up to the Warriors with a memorable show in which he grabbed four goals and created the other one.
Monomotapa crumbled in a shocking manner in the opening 25 minutes of the game and in the end conceded what is arguably the quickest goal seen at the Colliery when Chinyengetere found the target after 20 seconds.
Dreadlocked midfielder Nkosana Siwela, one of last year’s Soccer Star of the Year finalists beat Hillary Mugoniwa for speed near the corner flag before crossing for Chinyengetere, who obliged by powering a header past a badly exposed Joram Muchambo.
Hwange doubled their advantage in the 18th minute.
Siwela was once again involved when he won possession deep in the Monoz half before releasing left back David Boriwondo whose inch perfect cross was headed in by the Hwange captain to leave the drum-beating home fans wild.
Five minutes later, more Monoz misery followed as Malvern Longwe roasted Jimmy Tigere on the right flank before finding an unmarked Chinyengetere who registered his hat-trick with another flashing header.
Before the home fans had finished celebrating, Chinyengetere turned from executor to provider in the 25th minute when he sent in a defence splitting cross, which was headed in by an onrushing Siwela.
Seeing his long trip from Harare turn into a horror show Monoz coach Taurai Mangwiro made a double substitution, dragging out Wonder Kapinda and Jimmy Tigere for Makai Kawashu and Russel Madamombe respectively in the 30th minute.
Hwange were not finished as they continued pouring forward and it was Muchambo who did a lot of damage control by denying big striker Fransesco Zekumbawire and Siwela in one on one situations, as the visitors defence was constantly found at sea.
However, 10 minutes from the breather, Monoz awoke from their deep slumber and found a consolation in the 37th minute.
Kawashu and Madamombe combined well in the Hwange half before the latter crossed for Joseph Mutambiranwa whose hard and low shot beat Timothy Sibanda, who was impressive between the posts for the coalminers.
Monomotapa then started to play with a lot of purpose as they twice came close to reducing the deficit before the breather.
The second half started in the same fashion as Monoz started playing with their tails up and it was evident the hosts just needed a goal to deflate the visitors’ ego. That goal duly arrived in the 56th minute and it was a beauty from the Hwange captain which left him with a hero status after the match.
He got to the end of a lovely pass from Longwe deep in the Monoz half before waltzing his way past Brian Katsarawure and surprising Muchambo with a ferocious volley, which hit the roof of the nets.
