Fungai Muderere at Barbourfields Stadium
GENESIS MANGOMBE’S reign as Dynamos interim coach got off to a winning start as DeMbare edged Simba Bhora, who finished match with 10 men, 1-0 in a Chibuku Super Cup first round match at Barbourfields Saturday.
Second half substitute, Emmanuel Paga punished a sleepy Simba Bhora defence as Dynamos emerged from defending a dangerous free kick to scoring within seconds.
Paga was introduced for an ineffective Issa Sadiki on the hour mark.
The Ghanaian needed only seven minutes to send the blue and white camp into delirium after getting to an end of a Junior Makunike feed from the centre of their attack.
The match had gone to the breather with the scoreline goalless.
This was after a moment of madness got the better of towering Simba Bhora player Vaselli Kawe, who was introduced in the 46th minute.
He was shown a straight red card after an ugly attempt to wrestle the ball from Makunike, who was yellow carded for holding on to the ball after conceding a free kick.
