Dynamos climbed out of the relegation zone on Saturday after securing a 1-1 draw against Ngezi Platinum Stars in a drama-filled Premier Soccer League clash at Rufaro Stadium.

The match was marred by chaos as Ngezi Platinum had three players sent off, two red cards for players and one for head coach Takesure Chiragwi. Tensions flared further when Chiragwi, after being shown his marching orders, slapped one of his own players who had attempted to calm him down.

Despite the setbacks, Ngezi managed to hold on for a draw, while the point earned lifted Dynamos to 14th place on the log with 33 points, just above the relegation cut-off. The result continues Dynamos' unbeaten run under coach Kelvin Kaindu, who took charge at the end of July.

Elsewhere, Simba Bhora's title hopes suffered a setback after a 1-0 defeat to CAPS United at Wadzanayi Stadium. The Shamva-based side now trails log leaders Scottland by four points.
