TWO DEFEATS IN A ROW

Innocent Kurira in BULAWAYO

Highlanders………….0

Chicken Inn……………2

HIGHLANDERS suffered their second consecutive loss in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League in this Bulawayo Derby at Barbourfields.

For the second week running, Bosso did not look like a side that went on a 19-game unbeaten run before their loss to FC Platinum at Mandava last Sunday by a similar scoreline. 

Gamecocks midfielder Michael Charamba was unstoppable in the second half and was deservedly the man-of-the-match. 

The game always seemed to be there for the taking for both teams from the onset. 

It was clear one moment could swing the game either way. 

Chicken Inn got that moment in the 71st minute. 

Brian Muza rose from the bench to send Chicken Inn into the lead. 

This was after a brilliant move started Charamba who intelligently fed Leslie Lunga on the right before the later teed up Muza for the finish. 

Charamba would end the match as a contest after 82 minutes, after weaving his way past the Bosso defence and eventually sending the ball into the back of the net.
