Highlanders goalkeeper Ariel Sibanda has sent a message of encouragement to his teammates ahead of this afternoon’s Chibuku Super Cup final against Ngezi Platinum Stars at Babourfields Stadium.

Bosso and Madamburo lock horns in the annual tournament and Sibanda, who has been impressive for the Bulawayo-based oufit as evidenced by him being among the Soccer Star of the Year finallists named this week, rallied his colleagues ahead of the clash.

“It’s a privilege and honour to lead this very young, but talented and brave squad to the final of the Chibuku Super Cup. You’re the best team. You have won many battles. Hold on. We are 90 minutes away. Let’s make our coaches, the club and it’s great fans proud,” the shot-stopper posted on Twitter. 

The match kicks of at 15:00hrs.
