Football commentary Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League, Manica Diamonds vs Tenax
Manica coach fumes over poor refereeing

Social media critics and a poor run in the Chibuku Super Cup have fueled speculation about a coaching change. The team will be without key player Nyasha Chintuli due to loan contract terms. Tenax coach Shadreck Mugurasawe remains focused on winning despite past results, bolstered by a recent victory and the strong performance of captain Takunda Mapara.
Ndiraya wary of strugglers Bulawayo City
Dynamos coach Tonderai Ndiraya is preparing for a challenging match against Bulawayo City, despite the latter's recent technical team changes, including the appointment of Farai Tawachera as the new coach. Dynamos, leading the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League with 29 points, maintains an eight-match unbeaten streak but Ndiraya expresses dissatisfaction with the team's goal-scoring. Emmanuel Paga is Dynamos' top scorer with five goals, and there is speculation about the team's interest in Clive Augusto, recently released by Caps United.

Base switch works out for Bullets
Cranborne Bullets secured their first home match victory at Sakubva stadium, with a 2-1 win over Bulawayo City.

The team had previously struggled in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League, taking eight matches to achieve their first win. The move to Sakubva, where they had an unbeaten streak during the Chibuku Super Cup group games, has proven beneficial, lifting them to 15th place in the league.
