.(0) 1 SUBSTITUTE Ryan Ncube gave them the inspiration they needed to steal a point in this Castle Lager Premiership draw at Rufaro yesterday. CAPS United looked well on their way to pocketing the full points as they dominated in all phases of play, especially after taking the lead through William Manondo, who got his 12th strike this season two minutes before the break.

But for all their industry, the Green Machine failed to get the insurance goal to secure the game. In the end, Yadah decided to risk it and they got rewarded with 23 minutes left when Ncube shot perfectly when he was assisted by the impressive Jerry Chipangura. Makepekepe needed the win to atone for their Chibuku Super Cup exit last week and give themselves a chance to fight for a top-four finish in the league.

And they showed it right from the time referee Mercy Mayimbo blew the first whistle. But it was Yadah, missing their main man Khama Billiat through suspension, who instead got clear on goal with just 40 seconds on the clock. Former Warriors striker Evans Rusike got to the end of a loose ball that drew CAPS United goalkeeper Ashley Rayners off his line but his lob narrowly missed the target.

The miss awakened Makepekepe with Junior Bunjira the main axis in their attack. Chitembwe felt the points should have gone his team’s way had his players been decisive in dealing.
