The expulsion of referee Ruzive Ruzive from the 2015 Cosafa Senior Challenge has been long coming and he is not alone in his incompetence.
His expulsion was not surprising considering the fact that there have been a lot of complaints not only on the former Zimbabwe Referee of the Year, but also on the standards of Zimbabwean football officiating in general.
Ruzive has been in the eye of a storm on numerous occasions and at one time, Bulawayo giants Highlanders protested against him handling their matches saying that he was not only biased, but incompetent.
Some are even questioning why in the first place Cosafa would consider having Zimbabwe referees at their tournament when the standards of football officiating in this country have gone down to the extent that not even a single Zimbabwean referee has been chosen for the Africa Cup of Nations finals.
