The home side were coming from two consecutive defeats against title-chasing teams Chicken Inn and FC Platinum.
Yesterday Mangwiro needed a win and they did that in ruthless fashion.
Former Dynamos player Russel Madamombe opened the scoring in the 5th minute while Ralph Kawondera scored a wonderful goal in the 47th minute with Lameck Nhamo sealing the victory three minutes later.

“I think we controlled the match very well. We are now hoping to win in our next matches,” he said.
