Ngezi Platinum Stars and Dynamos will meet again in the final of the Chibuku Super Cup, for the second consecutive year.
The showdown follows Ngezi Platinum Stars’ thrilling victory over Simba Bhora, winning 5-4 on penalties after a 2-2 draw at Baobab Stadium on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Dynamos secured their spot by defeating Manica Diamonds 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 stalemate at Rufaro Stadium on Sunday.
In Saturday’s match in Mhondoro, Ngezi took the lead in the 37th minute with a goal from Talent Chamboko.
However, Simba Bhora equalised in the 75th minute thanks to Tymon Machope’s close-range effort.
Machope then scored again six minutes later, putting Simba ahead, but Ngezi responded just two minutes after that with Farai Madanhanga’s goal, sending the match to penalties.
During the shootout, Kudzai Chigwida, Nigel Makumbe, Takunda Benhura, Never Tigere, and Madanhanga all successfully converted their kicks for Ngezi Platinum Stars.
For Simba, Walter Musona, Blessing Moyo, Gift Saunyama, and Onifade Abubakar scored, but Ishe Mauchi had his attempt saved, securing Ngezi’s place in the final.
On Sunday in Harare, Dynamos faced an uphill battle after conceding a goal to Bret Amidu just 19 minutes into the match.
However, they rallied in the dying moments, with substitute Emmanuel Paga scoring a crucial equaliser four minutes into stoppage time, again forcing penalties.
All four Dynamos penalty takers—captain Frank Makarati, Congolese forward Eli Ilunga, Arthur Musiyiwa, and Valentine Kadonzvo—successfully found the net.
Manica Diamonds’ Forster Dhemere was thwarted by Dynamos goalkeeper Martin Mapisa, and Takunda Jeffrey’s shot went wide.
Veteran Gerald Bero and Farai Banda managed to score for Manica, but it wasn’t enough to clinch victory.
In the 2023 edition of Zimbabwe’s premier knockout tournament, which offers a ticket to the CAF Confederations Cup, Dynamos beat Ngezi 2-0.
This year, the Chibuku Super Cup represents the only opportunity for either Ngezi or Dynamos to secure silverware, as both clubs trail in the race for the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League title.
Currently, Ngezi sits in fourth place with 46 points, 14 points behind log leader Simba Bhora, while Dynamos are in ninth place with 41 points, 19 points off the top spot.
The 2023 Chibuku Super Cup final was played at Baobab Stadium, while this year’s edition is set to be held at Rufaro Stadium.

Ngezi Platinum Stars beat Hwange 6-0 in a rescheduled Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) match played at Baobab Stadium on Saturday.

Benhura opened the scoring with a header in the 14th minute before Tanaka Munemo added a second goal in the 22nd minute.

The victory moved Ngezi Platinum Stars up to third place in the league standings with 46 points, while Hwange dropped deeper into the relegation zone.
Ngezi Platinum remains 14 points behind league leaders Simba Bhora, who have 60 points.
Hwange’s Dominic Chungwa missed a penalty that could have provided a consolation goal.

Takunda Benhura Scores 4 Goals As Ngezi Platinum Stars Crush Hwange 6-0

Former Ngezi Platinum Stars head coach Benjani Mwaruwari has reportedly filed a claim of US$1.6 million against the club with FIFA for unfair dismissal.
This development follows FIFA’s order for the reigning Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions to compensate their former assistant coach, Bongani Mafu, nearly US$200,000.
Mafu served as Benjani’s assistant at Ngezi when both were dismissed just months after joining the Mhondoro-based club.
Mafu was Benjani’s assistant at Ngezi when they were sacked a few months after they arrived at the club. <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/ngezi-faces-benjanis-us1-6m-mega-storm-it-could-be-the-biggest-such-payout-in-football-in-southern-africa-fifas-decision-for-mafu-to-be-paid-likely-to-act-as-a-precedent/">H-Metro</a> quoted a source as saying:
<blockquote>
The real storm is the one that is set to come after the conclusion of Benjani’s claims and that is coming soon.
That is a huge figure we are talking about and it all comes to around US$1.6 million and if he gets everything that he has asked for then it could be the biggest payout in Southern Africa in such a football case.
You can say that a precedent was set when Mafu won his case and both Mafu and Benjani are using the same agent who appears to have very good knowledge of such cases.
It’s an interesting time for Zimbabwe football because I’m so sure that soon we will also hear the likes of Sunday (Chidzambwa), Norman (Mapeza) and Pasuwa also coming up with their claims against ZIFA over unpaid dues.
</blockquote>
The agent is Ndaba Nyathi, who is based in Finland.
Another former Ngezi assistant coach, Cosmas Zulu, has also been reported to be filing a claim for unfair dismissal. Said Zulu:
<blockquote>
Mafu tried his best to bring the club to the round table in an attempt to arrive at a compromise.
By the principle of pacta sunt servanda (agreements must be kept), but it was all in vain.
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, Ngezi Platinum Stars were given until last week to appeal the FIFA ruling, or they would face a two-year transfer ban, effective until the second transfer window of 2026 if they fail to pay the full amount within 45 days.
FIFA documents sent to the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA), the Confederation of African Football (CAF), and Mafu’s representatives confirm that the decision was made on August 27, with notifications sent to all parties three days later.

Benjani Mwaruwari, a former coach of Ngezi Platinum Stars, is claiming $1.6 million for being unfairly dismissed. His assistant coach, Bongani Mafu, already won a case against the club for $200,000. They both may get big payouts. Another assistant coach, Cosmas Zulu, is also filing a claim. Ngezi Platinum Stars must pay or face a two-year transfer ban. The decision was made by FIFA in August. The agents for the coaches are helping them with the claims. It might set a precedent for other coaches to claim unpaid dues.

Mwaruwari Files US$1.6 Million Unfair Dismissal Claim Against Ngezi Platinum Stars | Report

Defending champions of the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL), Ngezi Platinum Stars, have been ordered to pay former coach Bongani Mafu nearly US$200,000 after he won his unfair dismissal case.
Ngezi was given until last week to appeal the FIFA ruling, or they would face a two-year transfer ban, effective until the second transfer window of 2026 if they fail to pay the full amount within 45 days.
FIFA documents sent to the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA), the Confederation of African Football (CAF), and Mafu’s representatives confirm that the decision was made on August 27, with notifications sent to all parties three days later.
At the time of Mafu’s dismissal in 2022, Yvonne Manwa, the current ZIFA CEO, was serving as the chief executive officer of Ngezi Platinum Stars. The FIFA correspondence states:
<blockquote>
Ngezi Platinum Stars FC must pay the claimant (Bongani Mafu) US$196,750 as compensation for breach of contract without just cause.
The decision was passed on the 27th of August 2024 by the FIFA Football Tribunal’s Player Status Chamber.
The decision was communicated to Ngezi Platinum Stars Football Club, Bongani Mafu, ZIFA and CAF on the 30th of August 2024.
Should any of the parties wish to receive the grounds of the decision, a written request must be received by FIFA, within 10 days of receipt of notification of the findings of the decision.
Failure to do so within the stated deadline will result in the decision becoming final and binding and the parties being deemed to have waived their rights to file an appeal.
</blockquote>
If Ngezi Platinum Stars lose their appeal, it could turn out to benefit players and coaches who have been subjects of unfair labour prices.

Ngezi Platinum Stars, a football team, need to pay their former coach almost $200,000 after losing a case. If they don't pay within 45 days, they might not be able to sign new players for two years. The decision was made by FIFA and sent to different football associations. The coach was dismissed in 2022, and now the team has to pay him. If Ngezi's appeal is rejected, it might help other players and coaches who were treated unfairly.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Face Two Year Transfer Ban For Unpaid US$$200,000 To Former Coach

Reigning Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions, Ngezi Platinum Stars, faced a heartbreaking exit from the CAF Champions League after a tense penalty shootout against Congolese champions AS Maniema Union.
The second leg of the preliminary round clash, held at Stade des Martyrs in Kinshasa, DRC, ended in a 4-3 defeat on penalties for Ngezi Platinum Stars on Sunday, 25 August.
Both legs of the fixture ended in goalless draws, leading to the dreaded penalty shootout to decide the winner.
Polite Moyo and Gareth Madhake were the unfortunate fall guys for Ngezi, missing the crucial fourth and fifth kicks.

Despite the misses, Captain Kudzai Chigwida, Farai Madhanaga, and Tinotenda Musariranwa successfully converted their penalties.
However, it wasn’t enough to secure victory as Agee Basiala, Ordy Simete, Paty Ilunga, and Rodrique Kitwa scored for the hosts, sealing Ngezi’s fate.
Teams
AS Maniema Union: A Basiala (N Mobaelua, 96′), O Sangana, R Musinga, O Mbala (R Kitwa, 68′), A Bokomboli, D Lupini, B Efonge, J Mboma, E Moanda, O Ndombele, J Kitambala

Ngezi Platinum Stars Eliminated From CAF Champions League

Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League (PSL) defending champions, Ngezi Platinum Stars (NPS), will be using Heroes Stadium in Zambia for their upcoming CAF Champions League home matches.
This is due to the lack of a CAF-certified stadium in Zimbabwe capable of hosting international competitions.
NPS will be making their second appearance in the African continental club competition, having previously represented Zimbabwe in the 2017 CAF Confederation Cup.
Ahead of the 2024/25 CAF Champions League campaign, which kicks off next month, the Mhondoro-based club has made several additions to their squad.
These include signing Tinotenda Meke and Malvern Hativagone, two of the best players currently in the local Zimbabwean league, from GreenFuel and Bulawayo Chiefs respectively.
The team has also brought in Tanaka Munemo, a graduate of the Real Betis Academy, and Blessed Mushonganyika from Legends Academy.
NPS will face AS Maniema of the Democratic Republic of Congo in the CAF Champions League preliminary stage, with the home leg scheduled to be played in Lusaka, Zambia during the weekend of August 16-18.

Ngezi Platinum Stars from Zimbabwe don't have a good stadium for big soccer games. They will play their important CAF Champions League matches in Zambia. The team has added new players to get ready for the tournament. They will play against a team from the Democratic Republic of Congo in August in Zambia. The team is trying hard to do well in the competition.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Forced To Host CAF Champions League Matches In Zambia

Dynamos will face Zambia’s ZESCO United in the 2024/25 first Preliminary Round of the CAF Confederation Cup, scheduled for August.
If they defeat the Zambian side, the 2023 Chibuku Cup winners will then proceed to the second Preliminary Round in September, where they’ll meet either Foresters FC from Seychelles or Orapa United from Botswana.
Speaking to <a href="https://bmetro.co.zw/zesco-will-fallmangombe/">Zimpapers Sport</a> on Thursday, Dynamos’ head coach, Genesis “Kaka” Mangombe, expressed confidence that with proper preparation, they can overcome ZESCO in the upcoming games. He said:
<blockquote>
We have been drawn against ZESCO, they are a good side. This means we have to be very prepared and address our grey areas since they are not pushovers.
It’s game on and we have to be prepared and be ready to battle.
If we tick all the right boxes, ZESCO is not going to be a problem for us they are going to fall.
We need to beef up our squad, and we need strikers with even some coming from abroad.
But we have a short space of time as they need to gel in the system since the days are near.
</blockquote>
The Glamour Boys faced a setback the last time they were slated to participate in continental club football. They withdrew from the CAF Champions League in 2015, citing financial challenges.
Meanwhile, the 2023 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League champions, Ngezi Platinum Stars, have been paired with AS Maniema from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in the CAF Champions League.
In the first leg, Ngezi will play as the home team, and then they’ll travel to Central Africa for the return leg.
The winner of this matchup will go on to face Petro de Luanda from Angola, who received a bye in the preliminary round.
Both draws were determined based on the teams’ geographical proximity.

Amanda Nyazero Appointed Ngezi Platinum Stars CEO

Ngezi Platinum Stars beat Sheasham 2-1 at Baobab Stadium on Wednesday, 09 November, to move a step closer to clinching their first-ever Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) title.
Ngezi now on 60 points, need just three points, or less, to win the 2023 PSL title with three games left to play this season.
A win in their next fixture this weekend will give Madamburo an unassailable 63 points.
Second-placed Manica Diamonds, who beat Simba Bhora 1-0 in a match played at Gibbo Stadium yesterday, are on 53 points and the highest they can go is just 62 points.
Ngezi can still win the title without even winning a single game in their last three fixtures if their close opponents drop points along the way.
In another fixture played on Saturday, Dynamos continued with their inconsistency after playing to a goalless draw with champions FC Platinum at Mandava Stadium.
DeMbare dropped to third place on the log standings, with 51 points, and could lose their position to rivals Highlanders, on 49 points, if Bosso beat Triangle at Gibbo Stadium this Thursday.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Go Top With 2-0 Win Over FC Platinum

Castle Lager Premier Soccer League club Ngezi Platinum Stars has appointed Philemon Mutyakureva as first team assistant coach.
Mutyakureva will work with head coach Takesure Chiragwi who was appointed the club’s substantive head coach in November 2022 after they finished in the top four. The club said in a statement:
<blockquote>
Ngezi Platinum Stars is proud to announce the appointment of Philemon Mutyakureva as first-team assistant coach. We welcome Coach Philemon to Madamburo.

Chiragwi was given the job on an interim basis when the club parted ways with former Zimbabwe Warriors captain Benjani Mwaruwari in July before he was appointed substantive head coach in late November.
Meanwhile, veteran football goalkeepers coach Cosmas “Tsano” Zulu left Ngezi Platinum Stars in early February this year.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Appoint New First-team Assistant Coach

Ngezi Platinum Stars’ disciplinary committee has cleared veteran football coach, Cosmas “Tsano” Zulu of allegations of undermining authority.
Zulu, who is the club’s goalkeepers’ coach, was suspended in July pending the outcome of an investigation of undermining authority within the technical set-up.
He was accused of undermining the Benjani Mwaruwari-led technical team before the former Manchester City striker and one of his assistants Bongani Mafu were dismissed a week later following a run of poor results.
Zulu denied the allegations and he has been cleared of any wrongdoing after the club’s investigations and a disciplinary hearing. Ngezi Platinum Stars said:
<blockquote>
Following investigations instituted by the club, Cosmas Zulu was cleared of all allegations.
His future role in the club will now depend on the technical team plans of the newly appointed head coach Takesure Chiragwi.
</blockquote>
Zulu joined Ngezi Platinum Stars in 2017 and survived the sacking of two coaches – Erol Akbay and Rodwell Dhlakama. | <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/tsano-cleared-at-ngezi-future-lies-on-new-coach/">Chronicle</a>

Veteran Coach Cleared At Ngezi Platinum Stars

Ngezi Platinum Stars have fired chief executive officer Nyasha Kadenge after almost six years at the helm.
Kadenge joined Madamburo soon after the club was promoted to the Premier Soccer League in 2016 and played a key role in setting up administrative structures at the club. Ngezi Platinum Stars said in a statement:
<blockquote>
Kadenge was appointed as the first CEO of the club soon after its promotion to the PSL in 2016.
She was instrumental in putting together administrative structures of the club and was one of the pioneer female leaders of a Premier Soccer League football team in Zimbabwe.
The board and club executive thank Kadenge for her contribution to the club and wish her well as she leaves to pursue personal interests.
Efforts are underway to fill the position of club CEO.
</blockquote>
In February this year, the then head coach Rodwell Dhlakama resigned after he had been sent on forced leave.
In March, the club unveiled former Warriors stars Benjani Mwaruwari and Tinashe Nengomasha as head coach and team manager, respectively.
Bongani Mafu was appointed the first assistant and Takesure Chiragwi, who had been working as the team’s interim coach, was appointed the second assistant. John Vera was named the new performance analyst.

<blockquote>
We can confirm that the Ngezi Platinum Stars Football Club Board has appointed Takesure Chiragwi as the interim head coach of Ngezi Platinum Stars FC with immediate effect.
Before this appointment, Takesure Chiragwi was the first assistant coach of the club.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Send Dhlakama On Indefinite Leave

Ngezi Platinum Stars coach Rodwell Dhlakama said that he will play youngsters more often in future matches following impressive performances by Arter Kaseke (16) and another teenager, Tendai Matindife, in the ongoing Chibuku Super Cup tournament.
Dhlakama’s side became the first team, in the Chibuku Super Cup, to play a 16-year old when he introduced Kaseke in last weekend’s 5-1 win over Whawha.
Kaseke came in as Marlon Mushonga’s replacement with 20 minutes still on the clock and partnered Polite Moyo at the heart of the defence. Said Dhlakama:
<blockquote>
With how these guys have been performing, I think I will have to introduce more teenagers in the team going forward.
I have been using Matindife mostly though in bit-part roles and Kaseke’s top-notch performance has given me further belief in the abilities of these youngsters.
I have plenty of them in my change-room. MacDonald Makuwe has also been very much impressive and he has also scored an important goal so far in the campaign.
I will introduce more young players, fusing them with the experienced guys and I am sure the end product will be up there.
</blockquote>
Ngezi Platinum Stars lead Group 4 standings with 13 points to their name, three ahead of second-placed FC Platinum with the last round clash between the two set to decide group winners.
Triangle are a distant third with three points, two above Whahwa who are bottom of the table on a single point

Dhlakama To Give Youngsters More Opportunities

The management of Ngezi Platinum Stars and the players have resolved an impasse over the reviewing of the latter’s salaries and allowances.
On Friday, the players refused to train, demanding a salary and bonus increment or alternatively, to be paid in US dollars.
The pay dispute threatened to derail the club’s preparations and participation in Saturday’s match (today) against TelOne.
The news of the two parties’ agreement was revealed by Star FM sports journalist, Yvonne Mangunda, who said:
<blockquote>Ngezi Platinum players have agreed to play after an agreement was reached on reviewing their salaries and bonuses in line with adjustments in the cost of living.
The team had refused to train yesterday citing the need for a review of their remuneration and intended to boycott today’s home match against Telone at Baobab.</blockquote>
