Walter Magaya’s Heart Stadium suspended from hosting PSL matches

Must Try

Trending

HARARE – The ZIFA First Instance Board (FIB) has temporarily suspended Walter Magaya’s Heart Stadium from hosting Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) matches.

The FIB is responsible for inspecting football stadiums across the country. It assesses the facilities’ safety, infrastructure, and compliance with relevant regulations.

According to NewZimbabwe.com, The Heart Stadium has been deemed unfit to host topflight matches as it has been operating without public toilets since its homologation in March.

The stadium, located in Waterfalls, Harare, was relying on hiring mobile toilets which were overwhelmed on matchdays.

The move by the FIB to temporarily suspend Heart Stadium means Magaya’s club, Yadah Stars, will use Rufaro Stadium in Mbare as its new home ground.

Rufaro Stadium is now the only venue in Harare for PSL teams as the National Sports Stadium (located between the Warren Park and Belvedere suburbs) and Gwanzura Stadium in Highfield are in a poor state.

Zimbabwe currently does not have a CAF-approved facility which can be used for international football games. Pindula News

Zifa is very right . Magaya , used his backdoor influence in the first instance , lami at one time I thought everything was up to standard , as I saw the president of the country and a whole minister of sports touring the stadium , we were sold pictures , till I saw the first game being played there this I knew the country has serious problems

The Zifa board doesn’t like Prophet Magaya the feel he is threat to them regarding soccer in Zimbabwe. that is why they didn’t come on the official opening of the stadium and they gave lame excuses.
