HIGHLANDERS were left licking their wounds after a late equaliser was disallowed for off-side in the 78th minute in a controversial moment in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League five-goal thriller played at Rufaro Stadium on Sunday.
Watch video below
With Dynamos leading 3-2 after Qadr Amini had given coach David Mandigora some breathing space in the 73rd minute, Highlanders rightback Webster Chingodza flighted a long throw into the box that was headed down by Obadiah Tarumbwa onto the path of Edwin Muzanenhamo.
Muzanenhamo hit the ball first time and it nestled into the nets. And away Highlanders players wheeled away to celebrate.
At that moment, Dynamos goalkeeper Tatenda Mukuruva took to his defenders to blast them on poor defending, but lo and behold, the near side assistant referee Bongani Gahadzikwa ruled out the goal for offside.
