CAPS UNITED blew a chance to go atop the Premiership table when they were held to a goalless draw at ZPC Kariba on Wednesday afternoon.

With table toppers FC Platinum failing to win at Border Strikers, Makepekepe could have eclipsed Pure Platinum Play had they won at Nyamhunga.

The Green Machine remain a point behind FC Platinum who moved to 48 points after their fruitless hunt at the Border.

Takunda Sadiki grabbed his first goal for Dynamos as the see-sawing former champions dispatched relegation haunted Tsholotsho 2-0 at Rufaro to move back into the top four.

Youthful second half substitute Tawanda Macheke scored the other goal for DeMbare who now have 38 points, one ahead of fifth placed ZPC Kariba.

Murape Murape was on the technical bench after the Dynamos board reportedly rejected club president Keni Mubaiwa’s decision to sack the assistant coach.

Tonderayi Ndiraya’s Ngezi Platinum Stars cemented their chances of survival with a solid 2-0 victory over air force side Chapungu.

Ngezi are now on 33 points, 14 clear of Tsholotsho who occupy the last relegation slot.

Triangle continued with their mini revival with a 2-1 away win at Bulawayo City, the win coming a few days after David Mandigora sealed a place in the Chibuku Super Cup quarterfinals.
