Zimbabwe international defender Jordan Zemura’s sublime performance for AFC Bournemouth against Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon earned him a man-of-the-match accolade.
The 23-year-old utility player was voted by the Cherries’ fans as their best player for the league match that saw their team draw 1-1 with hosts Newcastle United.
Zemura who at the moment has featured in six English Premier League games this season, provided an assist for forward Philip Billing.
Billing scored from a Zemura cross to put the visitors in front in the 62nd minute.
However, the Cherries failed to hold on to the lead after conceding a penalty which was converted by Newcastle’s Alexander Isak in the 68th minute.
Following his solid performance, Zemura was praised by the Bournemouth based newspaper Dorset in their player review.
“Most of the Cherries’ good work came down Newcastle’s right-hand side, with Jordan Zemura typically the free man able to burst forward,” wrote the newspaper.
“He was always willing to take on the full-back and look to cross into the box.
“At the other end, he stood his ground well, despite tricky movement from Miguel Almiron.
“He deservedly provided the assist for the breakthrough with a sharp, low delivery.”
The Warriors star also got some praises from the club’s fans on Twitter after giving him 46% votes to win the award ahead of Billing, Smith and Neto.
“Jordan Zemura (JZ) was the man of the match for me, that was one of his best Bournemouth performances,” the AFC Bournemouth fan page tweeted.
“Thought Zemura of old was gone hasn’t been the same since AFCON but we saw him today,” also tweeted one Conor Ward.
“Jordan Zemura my man of the match and that boy deserves a new contract. Top class,” reads Karzola90’s tweet.
I watched the match , he played really well.
Famba mwana wevhu
He deserved it.That boy is a marvel to watch.If he behaves he is going far.i felt proud.
This guy plays better than Nakamba
Langton Kudita do they play same position
Langton Kudita its an insult to Zemura,its like comparing coke netwizza
Ashley Zuva different positions almost the same roles…..they are comparable cde.
Seeh Ablaze Chitimbe how can you compare a Midfielder ne defender
Ashley Zuva a defensive midfielder is more of a defender than an attacker,that’s why in most cases they play anywhere in defense…..if a fullback can overlap and assists or even make attempts of score what stops someone who plays in front of defenders……someone who has the liberty to rove in middle of the park…….kama mazogara Ballon dor inoisa mnhu wese in 1 category from goalkeeper to striker.
Langton Kudita True
Seeh Ablaze ChitimbeSeeh Ablaze Chitimbe here we are talking about a DM and a defender we can’t compare players who plays different positions yes zemura is playing good full stop.
Ashley Zuva pakanaka mukuru ndatoona kuti hamusi mnhu webhora hamungazvinzwisise,ndamboti pamwe Ballon ichakuvhurai but zvatoramba

Ashley Zuva vanodii kuisa striker ipapo? Kana keeper?
Seeh Ablaze Chitimbe munetsi
Langton Kudita is this necessary ncxaa
Tichanzwa kuti he has fallen out of favour nacoach wake manje manje
Lloyd Kanyoka 😂😂😂zveZim ndozva zvinoita zvikashambadzwa so
Imwi padraw panonzi munhu ashaina?Tinyarewo kana makatumwa kumumarketer don’t do it at the expense of our news audence.Ndanyara
