The 32-year-old former Zimbabwe international, who wore the captain's armband during the match started the match as a right winger in a great sign of the confidence his club has in his abilities despite his age.
Musona certainly lived up to his billing as he broke the deadlock with a well-taken penalty in the 18th minute.
Musona got his second goal of the day eight minutes into the second half. He notched home from a rebound after the keeper parried the ball into his path.
He completed his hat trick on the hour mark after starting and finishing off a brilliant move on the right a clinical fight-footed shot from inside the box which gave the goalkeeper no chance.
