Roderick Mutuma was on target again yesterday as former champions Dynamos moved into the top four with a 2-0 win over Mutare City Rovers in a Castle Lager Premiership match at Rufaro.
It took Dynamos only four minutes to get the lead but they still looked vulnerable until the 74th minute when substitute Dominic Mukandi sealed the points with a powerful low shot.
Mutare City Rovers, with a little bit of luck, could have found the equaliser in the first half but goalkeeper Ashley Reyners twice made stunning saves to deny Stephen “Dealer” Sibanda and Agrippa Murimba from point blank. The result helped Dynamos bounce back into the top four after ZPC Kariba lost 1-3 at Bulawayo City yesterday.
Speaking on the win coach Lloyd Mtasa said,
I think it’s good for us. The last game we played we scored three and today we scored two. It’s unfortunate that we are getting the goals a bit late in the season but it’s a positive sign.
Dynamos now have 43 points, 14 behind title favourites Caps United with two games remaining in the season. Mutare City Rovers are likely to be relegated due to the defeat following resolutions made by the Zifa councillors on Saturday to maintain the old system of relegating four teams.
