The match provided soccer crazy Zvishavane residents the much needed weekend entertainment as former champions, FC Platinum were away to flamboyant side, Bulawayo Chiefs FC.
Michael Maphosa, an ardent FC Platinum supporter who initially doubted the inclusion of Tino Benza had a different opinion after the match.
” l thought Tino Benza was included in the team because nepotism but he proved me otherwise, in the build up of the first goal he shielded a defender creating a chance for his counterpart to score and during the match his movements were awesome, the free kick was an icing on top the cake. We were treated to top shelf football and it was very entertaining,” said Maphosa.
