CHISUMBANJE-BASED Premiership debutantes GreenFuel are teetering on the edge of survival or relegation from the top-flight league, with two rounds of matches left to play before the seasons ends.

 

The ethanol producers could have secured their top-flight safety in their maiden campaign at the weekend had they not thrown away a 2-0 half-time lead to allow Harare giants CAPS United to force a draw.

 

Collins Dhuwa and James Nguluve had thrust Rodwell Dhlakama’s men into the lead before the team went to sleep in the second half and conceded twice.

 

GreenFuel remain in 10th position with 40 points from 32 games. They only need a point in their remaining fixtures to be guaranteed of safety.

 

After a sluggish start in their debut season in he top-flight league, which cost coaches Lloyd Mutasa and Bekithemba Ndlovu their jobs, GreenFuell hired Dhlakama to turn around their fortunes.

 

The respected coach, who traces his roots to Chipinge, managed to steady the seemingly sinking ship and led them to a stunning revival.

 

He is set to guide them to safety and ensure that Premiership football stays in Chisumbanje.
