ZIFA Southern Region Division One side Indlovu Iyanyathela coach Arnold Mawere says they are not satisfied with their start to the season but have their sights set on finishing in the top five.
The army side beat Binga Pirates 1-0 in a league match played at Luveve Stadium B Arena on Sunday.
Ramson Chingwara was on target for Indlovu Iyanyathela.
They are in sixth position having collected 23 points from 13 games.
Fifth-placed Casmyn are just a point ahead of Indlovu Iyanyathela.
“I felt we played well against Binga Pirates.
It was a great win given we had gone on a two-game win-less streak.
As a club we want to finish inside the top five.
We are still within reach of our targets.
“As a coach you are never satisfied with the squad that you have, but can only work to ensure that the team you have delivers the desired results,” said Mawere.
Meanwhile, Hwange, who were not in action last week, returned to the pitch with a 2-0 victory over Talen Vision at the Colliery Stadium.
They were meant to play Binga Pirates last weekend, but the match was postponed when their opponents appealed a decision for them to play home matches on neutral venues following crowd trouble in Binga.
The incident saw Binga Pirates fans assaulting referee Hardly Ndazi for alleged poor officiating.
With the victory, Hwange maintained their grip at the top of the table while Arenel Movers kept the pressure on them by their 2-1 victory away to Mainline.
