In the Dynamos-Chapungu clash played at Ascot Stadium, Kuda Kumwala scored for the visitors after 11 minutes when he was allowed space in the box to pick his spot with the hosts’ defenders ball watching.

Quality Kangadze made it 2 after 33 minutes when he headed in a cross from Emmanuel Mandiranga.

Former Dynamos forward Philip Marufu rose from the bench to score the consolation goal at the stroke of full time for the Gweru side which had put the visitors under siege for most parts of the second half.
