After winning the 2011 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League title on Sunday, Dynamos are now preparing for the Mbada Diamonds Cup final against Motor Action set for the National Sports Stadium this weekend.
Dynamos beat Motor Action 2-0 two weeks back to claw their way back into the league championship race and completed a fairy tale comeback under coach Calisto Pasuwa to win the title on goal difference on Sunday.
The new champions beat Kiglon 2-0 on an afternoon when their nearest rivals FC Platinum beat Shooting Stars 3-1 at Gwanzura, to finish on 58 points.
Motor Action have already bagged the BancABC Sup8r trophy after beating Highlanders 1-0 in the final on September 10 in Bulawayo to earn a ticket into Africa's Caf Confederation Cup.
Dynamos want to play in this cup as well if they win the Mbada final due to the financial assistance offered by the sponsors for participating in Africa next year.
The tournament will see the winners pocketing $75 000, a floating trophy and $150 000 worth of accommodation and air tickets sponsorship subsidy to participate in the Caf Confederation Cup.
Further this subsidy shall be used to procure $25 000 worth of kit sponsorship bearing Mbada Diamonds logo for use during the 2012 Caf Confederation Cup tournament while the runners-up will pocket $50 000.
