DYNAMOS…………………………….…………0
Highlanders………………………….………..0
IT’S now TEN games without a win for Dynamos.
In those 900 minutes the Glamour Boys have lost SIX times and drawn the other four.
They failed to score in EIGHT of those games and even in the two games they scored it was just a single goal.
DeMbare now have 10 points.
It is also the number of goals they have conceded during this poor run.
Abandoned by the majority of their fans, who again chose to boycott the big showdown, DeMbare are in a serious crisis.
The numbers in the stand are sending a big message that all is not well with the Glamour Boys.
And, it appears, the performance on the pitch is also being affected.
Dynamos have not won in the last TWO months.
They were winless in April and they were also winless in May.
They have just started the month of June without a win.
It was Saul Chaminuka’s third game as Dynamos coach and he has two points to show.
Chaminuka said he needs some time.
“It’s a process, this is my third game in charge, I think we are getting somewhere and if we had immediately started playing like a team dropped from heaven, people would wonder,” said Chaminuka.
“We will get there as a team, we are aware of our shortcomings and it can’t just happen all of a sudden.
“The time will come when we will start creating scoring opportunities and when we will start playing exciting football.”
Highlanders are now on 19 points and their coach, Kelvin Kaindu, feels his boys are starting to connect the dots.
Kaindu also acknowledged that the vibe of the biggest fixture in the country is no longer the same citing the drop of form as the reason.
“I think the Battle of Zimbabwe still remains the biggest game, of course, we are in unfamiliar positions, the last time I was here it was either Highlanders or Dynamos but our positions on the league table has impacted the vibe a bit,” said Kaindu.
“From the way I saw this game, I think there is still something at stake for these two teams to fight for.
“But we seem to be heading somewhere with the squad that we have, we don’t want to make many additions, because we have a bit of balance at the moment.”
