KAINDU SAYS DEMBARE/BOSSO IS ONE OF AFRICA’S BIGGEST GAMES

- Fungai Muderere Sports Reporter

KELVIN Kaindu says the Battle of Zimbabwe is one of the biggest matches in Africa.

Kaindu, a former coach at Power Dynamos and Zanaco, said:

“Highlander­s is like home for me. We are preparing for the next game that is against Dynamos.

“It is a big game and it will always remain a big game. It’s one of the big games in Africa. I have had the privilege to travel across Africa, the Highlander­s versus Dynamos game is big.

“It comes with a lot of pressure.

“So many things are involved but what we would want to see is the fans coming out celebratin­g and enjoying the game.”

Kaindu saw his charges miss the championsh­ip to the Glamour Boys on a goal difference in 2012 and 2013.

“Yes, we missed it twice to Dynamos on goal difference, but we are trying to have a united squad like in 2012.

“We have young players who are so far doing well. It’s not easy to work with a club once and they invite you to come back and work for the second time.

“I think it’s all about what we did the last time we were here. We tried to come up with a strong team and it’s unfortunat­e we didn’t win the championsh­ip.

“I appreciate and salute the players we had,” said Kaindu.

He recently got his work permit and he heads a Bosso technical team that has Try Ncube and Agent Sawu as first and second assistants.

Bosso announced earlier this week that the rest of the ground charge will be US$5 per person, tickets in the VIP and VVIP will be going for US$10 and US$20.

A capacity crowd is expected to throng Emagumeni on a weekend when defending league champions Ngezi Platinum Stars will also descend on the City of Kings for their game against Arenel Movers tomorrow.
