Scottland FC moved to the summit of the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League table following a narrow 1-0 victory over Manica Diamonds at Rufaro Stadium on Friday. Walter Musona’s early goal proved decisive, securing all three points for coach Mabvuravira’s side in a tightly contested fixture.
The win came as defending champions Simba Bhora were sidelined due to CAF Champions League commitments, allowing Scottland to take full advantage and lead the standings heading into Matchday 30. Musona’s clinical finish in the opening stages was enough to separate the sides, with Scottland showing defensive discipline to preserve their lead.
Manica Diamonds saw their eight-match unbeaten run come to an end with the defeat, slipping to 11th place on the table with 33 points. The result marks a setback for the Mutare-based outfit, who had been building momentum in recent weeks.
