PSL, Zifa to blame for stadia crisis

LOCAL football is currently facing its worst stadium crisis since independence against the backdrop of a Fifa ban early last year.

At the moment, there is no single stadium in Harare which is fit to host premier league matches and the six topflight teams from the capital have sought home grounds elsewhere.

Giants Dynamos and Caps United have opted to adopt Barbourfields Stadium in Bulawayo as their new home, while Black Rhinos are based in Gweru, Herentals are now using Mandava in Zvishavane while Yadah FC and Cranborne Bullets will be using Baobab (Mhondoro) and Nyamhunga (Kariba) stadiums, respectively.
