The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) on Monday distanced itself from the proposed Unity Cup match between Dynamos and Highlanders.

ZIFA spokesperson Xolisani Gwesela on Monday said they were not aware of the match, adding that they have not sanctioned the match. He said:

As ZIFA we are not aware of such a match. Of course, we have heard people talking about it but as far as we know there is no such match that has been sanctioned by ZIFA.

If it’s indeed on, then it’s being arranged elsewhere and we have not been briefed about it or it’s probably people who are trying to push the agenda.

Recent media reports claimed that Dynamos and Highlanders will clash in the Unity Day Cup on Thursday.

Sakunda Holdings who were reported to be bankrolling the Unity Cup also distanced themselves from the match. | Chronicle
