The question every football fan is asking right now is not ‘who was at Ellis Robins yesterday?’, it’s who wasn’t. Promotion-chasing Northern Region Division One rivals Golden Eagles and Simba Bhora clashed in one of, if not the most eagerly-awaited football match this season. For a match in the second tier of Zimbabwean football, the hype it had and the electric atmosphere before, during and after the game, was unbelievable. The Golden Eagles leadership say close to 4000 people attended yesterday’s clash, which saw Dean Chunga rising high to head home a 90th minute equalizer after Knowledge Mapuka had thrust the hosts ahead just after the hour mark.
