Ngezi Platinum Stars Close In On PSL Title As Dynamos, FC Platinum Drop Points
Ngezi Platinum Stars beat Sheasham 2-1 at Baobab Stadium on Wednesday, 09 November, to move a step closer to clinching their first-ever Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) title.
Ngezi now on 60 points, need just three points, or less, to win the 2023 PSL title with three games left to play this season.
A win in their next fixture this weekend will give Madamburo an unassailable 63 points.
Second-placed Manica Diamonds, who beat Simba Bhora 1-0 in a match played at Gibbo Stadium yesterday, are on 53 points and the highest they can go is just 62 points.
Ngezi can still win the title without even winning a single game in their last three fixtures if their close opponents drop points along the way.
In another fixture played on Saturday, Dynamos continued with their inconsistency after playing to a goalless draw with champions FC Platinum at Mandava Stadium.
DeMbare dropped to third place on the log standings, with 51 points, and could lose their position to rivals Highlanders, on 49 points, if Bosso beat Triangle at Gibbo Stadium this Thursday.
In the other matches played on Wednesday, Herentals beat Cranborne Bullets 2-1 at the National Sports Stadium.
At Luveve Stadium, Chicken Inn drew 1-1 with Green Fuel, while Black Rhinos beat Yadah 1-0.
ZPC Kariba overcame Hwange 1-0 in a match played at Nyamhunga Stadium in the resort town.
