HARARE – Load shedding got the better of ZPC Kariba who suffered a shock 6-0 thrashing by Yadah in a Match Day 30 fixture played at Baobab on Sunday.

The power generators were trailing 2-0 at half time fell to an avalanche of 4 goals in the second period.

ZPC Kariba have not been at their best this season.

But the thought of the Kariba side taking half a dozen trips inside 90 minutes to retrieve the match ball from the back of their net may not even have been prophesied by Prophet Walter Magaya – Yadah owner – himself.

The result overshadowed what should ordinarily have been headline stories of the day; that of stubborn Hwange FC beating table toppers Ngezi Platinum 1-0 at the Colliery and the 1-1 draw by giants Highlanders and Caps United.

At the Colliery, run-away league leaders had the luxury of losing a match in the twilight period of the current premiership race and still maintain a comfortable seven-point lead at the summit of the premiership table with four matches left to end the season.

At Barbourfields, Mason Mushure scored for Highlanders on the hour mark to cancel Rodwell Chinyengetere’s 14th minute strike to end the match with the outfits tied on 1-1.

Both former champions are out of the title conversation to a point of reducing one of the country’s most followed football fixtures to just a display encounter.

At the National Sports Stadium, inconsistent Dynamos may have surrendered what was already faint hopes of beating Ngezi Platinum to the finishing line after playing to a 0-0 draw with struggling Black Rhinos.

Following Match Day 30 fixtures played weekend, Ngezi Platinum still sit comfortably at the top of the table with 57 points to their credit.

Dynamos, on 50, are second. Dembare share the same number of points with third placed Manica Diamonds and champions FC Platinum who are number four.

Highlanders, once promising to clinch the title after going unbeaten in the first half of the season are now fifth on 49.
