TONDERAI NDIRAYA ran out of superlatives to describe his side’s poor show after Dynamos laboured to a goalless draw against TelOne at Rufaro yesterday.
Ndiraya’s second reign at DeMbare came full circle yesterday when he met TelOne, his first opponents back in April when he took over from Lloyd “MaBlanyo” Chigowe.
It was Ndiraya’s 18th game in charge, 130 days after taking over the Dynamos hot seat and after yesterday’s draw, which was DeMbare’s ninth since the gaffer was unveiled on April 25, the former Ngezi Platinum Stars coach lashed out at his players.
Under Ndiraya, DeMbare have not lost at Rufaro and have now garnered 30 points out of a possible 54, which translates to a 55 percent success rate.
DeMbare are now on 33 points, five behind new log leaders Chicken Inn who stunned defending champions FC Platinum 2-1 at Mandava yesterday.
However, Ndiraya thinks those statistics are not a true reflection of his team’s performance.
“Yes, statistics show otherwise, but performance-wise, we are not consistent at all. Today we win, tomorrow we draw,” bemoaned Ndiraya.
“I think we were just bad today (yesterday) from the onset. From the first whistle, the team just failed to come to the party. We were not ourselves.
“Maybe fatigue was affecting the team, we have played three games in seven days. Honestly if you ask me to name the man of the match, I wouldn’t find one. It was a bad day in the office,” Ndiraya said.State media
