ZINYOWERA, WATSON COMPLETE BACK-TO-BACK AWARDS DOUBLE

Chapungu Football Club's outstanding 2026 ZIFA Central Region Soccer League campaign continues to earn recognition after Head Coach Tererayi Zinyowera and striker Edward 'Kariba' Watson were named Ronnie's Sports Arena Coach of the Month and YA FM Player of the Month respectively for May 2026.

The duo have now secured the awards for a second consecutive month, having also scooped the same honours in April.

Zinyowera's award follows an impressive May in which he guided the Waru Waru boys to four consecutive victories over Gwanda Pirates F.C (1–0), Kwekwe United FC (2–1), Good Morning FC (1–0), and FC Platinum U19 (5–0), reinforcing Chapungu's status as one of the league's standout teams.

Meanwhile, Watson continued his prolific form by scoring three goals during the month and remains the league's leading marksman with 10 goals in 11 appearances. His consistency in front of goal has been instrumental to Chapungu's success this season.

The back-to-back accolades are a testament to the hard work, discipline, and winning mentality that continue to drive the blue-and-gold Air Force side.

Hearty congratulations to Zinyowera and Kariba on their well-deserved achievements . . . 🤝

CHAPUNGU FC HITS FIVE TO EXTEND UNBEATEN RUN

Chapungu Football Club produced a breathtaking attacking display to dispatch FC Platinum U19 5–0 in a dominant Matchday 10 ZIFA Central Region Soccer League encounter at Ascot Stadium this afternoon.

The league leaders wasted no time asserting their authority. In-form striker Edward 'Kariba' Watson opened the scoring after just three minutes, setting the tone for a relentless performance by the Waru Waru boys.

Six minutes later, Tadiwa Mambudzi doubled the advantage before Tafadzwa Marufu added a third in the 17th minute to cap a devastating opening spell that left the visitors chasing the game.

Having established a commanding first-half lead, Chapungu controlled proceedings with their trademark blend of tactical discipline, composure, and attacking intent.

FC Platinum U19 showed admirable determination throughout and worked tirelessly to contain the hosts, but Tererayi Zinyowera's men remained firmly in control.

The hosts saved their final flourish for stoppage time. Arthur Chinda found the net in the first minute of added time before Byron Mapiye completed the rout two minutes later, putting the seal on an emphatic afternoon for the blue-and-gold army.

Beyond the scoreline, the victory once again highlighted the qualities that have propelled Chapungu to the summit of the table this season: defensive organisation, midfield industry, attacking efficiency, and an unwavering commitment to playing as a single, well-coordinated unit.

The result extends Chapungu's unbeaten run to ten matches and further strengthens their position at the top of the standings.

Chapungu Football Club continued their impressive march at the summit of the ZIFA Central Region Soccer League with a hard-fought 1–0 victory over a determined Good Morning FC side in an intense Matchday 8 encounter played at Ascot Stadium earlier today.

In a contest marked by tactical discipline, physical intensity, and moments of high drama, the Waru Waru boys once again showed resilience and composure to secure another crucial three points.
