Harare City 3 - 1 Highlanders
At Rufaro Stadium, Mark Harrison's gamble to field junior players paid off when his Harare City got the first win of the campaign at the expense of Highlanders.
The Sunshine Boys came from behind and beat a 10-man Bosso side 3-1.
Prince Dube opened the scoring in the 26th minute to put the visitors ahead. City responded just before the half-hour through Munyaradzi Diro-Nyenye who finished off Milton Ncube's free-kick from the edge of the box.
Walter Mukanga then completed the turn-around on minute 32 before Tatenda Tumba hit the target early in the second half. Mukanga could have gotten his second goal of the day in the 76th minute but was denied from the spot by Highlanders goalkeeper Ariel Sibanda.
Defender McClive Phiri did not finish the game as he received a red card in the incident that led to a penalty.
The encounter between TelOne and ZPC Kariba ended in a 1-0 result in favour of Kauya Katuru-turu.
Results:
Chicken Inn 2-0 Dynamos
Harare City 3-1 Highlanders
TelOne 0-1 ZPC Kariba
