In a thrilling match that showcased exceptional skill and determination, Ingezi Hurricanes Academy secured a convincing 2-0 victory over Brompton FC, thanks to a brilliant performance from man of the moment striker Macgiven Aliya who scored a brace. This win not only highlighted Aliya’s talent but also demonstrates the team’s growing strength and cohesion, solidifying their position as a formidable force and propelled the team to second position in the Mashonaland West Division 2B West league match played at Brompton Mine on Sunday.

Macgiven Aliya was the standout performer for Ingezi Hurricanes Academy, scoring both goals in the 35th minutes and in the 80th minutes in a display of skill and precision that left the Brompton FC defense struggling to contain him. He scored one goal in each half, showcasing his ability to perform under pressure and capitalise on scoring opportunities. His relentless pressure and clever movement created opportunities that his teammates were able to capitalize on, and his clinical finishing sealed the win for Ingezi Hurricanes.

Despite the loss, Brompton FC’s goalkeeper Wonderful Zulu was a bright spot for his team, pulling off brilliant saves to deny Ingezi Hurricanes Academy strikers from scoring more goals. Zulu’s heroics in goal proved his skill and agility, and he will undoubtedly be looking to build on this performance in future matches.

Despite not being at the top of their game, Ingezi Hurricanes Academy proved once again that they have the skills and determination to overcome any challenge and come out on top. The win marks their third consecutive victory with a clean sheet, showcasing the steadiness of their defense and impressive goalkeeping by Tamuka Javachava, who had a relatively quiet game.

The victory over Brompton FC was not just about Aliya’s individual brilliance but was also evident Ingezi Hurricanes Academy’s teamwork and strategy. The team’s solid defense and potent attack worked together seamlessly, with each player contributing to the win. The team’s midfielders controlled the tempo of the game, while the defenders were resolute in their efforts to prevent Brompton FC from scoring.
