Shooting Stars 0-1 CAPS United
MOSES Chunga’s second dance with CAPS United began on an upbeat note on Thursday as they beat Shooting Stars in a Premier League match at Rufaro.
Chunga, who quit as Stars coach weeks ago before taking over at United on Tuesday, was cheered by United fans after a routine win.
Clive Kawinga scored the crucial goal after 30 minutes after directing the outstanding Joel Luphahla’s free kick delivery past Stars shot stopper Pedzisai Gumiremhete.
United bossed the contest for long periods and their goalkeeper Edmore Sibanda, restored between the posts after being relegated by the departed coach Lloyd Chitembwe, was barely disturbed.
Chunga said: "It’s always nice to start on a high note. The players enjoyed the game and expressed themselves. But there is still a lot of work to be done.
"They did well in the first half but fizzled in the second half where they were just performing in flashes.
"The reality is we are 15 points behind Motor Action but we are capable of winning 10 games in a row, but that will be determined by the way we apply ourselves.”
And Chunga, who quit United at the end of the 2008 seasons after insults were hurled at him by fans, says he holds no grudges.
"I don’t have permanent enemies. And supporters always change, if you win they will be happy and if you lose it is vice versa,” he said.
