PSL Summons Highlanders Over Abandoned Chibuku Super Cup Quarterfinal Match

The Premier Soccer League (PSL) has summoned Highlanders to appear before its Ad Hoc Committee following the abandonment of their Chibuku Super Cup quarterfinal match against Simba Bhora at Wadzanai Stadium last weekend.

The match was called off while it was still goalless in the second half after Highlanders players and staff left the field in protest over the referee’s decision to award a penalty to the home team.

The penalty was awarded following a clash between Tinashe Balakasi and Bosso defender Peter Muduhwa.

Highlanders argued that the foul occurred outside the box, leading them to dispute the referee’s decision.

As the Bosso players exited the pitch before the penalty was taken, the match officials had no choice but to abandon the game.

Mutemo vacho hauna kujeka. So if a refree is not handling a match properly what should the other team do during the match.

The referee is to blame for all this mess. On the other hand Highlanders should have finished the match and filed a complaint after the game. They were going to win their case as all the evidence is pointing to the officials.

Even if they won the case the match result wouldnt change. Teams file complaints all the time but we have never heard of a match being replayed or its result being changed

"Oder 8:8 causing the abandonment of a Chibuku Super Cup". So,is it the referee or Highlanders?

Futile exercise by the PSL , as it's now evident that the referees grave miscall was arrived at and by a "fix" So it's ultimately the match officials who are now on suspension who are wholly responsible for the abandonment of the game.
