Highlanders have the best fans in Zim: de Jongh

Highlanders coach Hendrik Pieter de Jongh thinks the club has the best supporters in the country.

The gaffer made the comments after guiding Bosso to the 2019 Chibuku Super Cup final in front of a sizable crowd at Barbourfields Stadium on Sunday. The Bulawayo giants beat ZPC Kariba 1-0 courtesy of a first-half goal by Prince Dube to set up a date against Ngezi Platinum Stars.

“They are the best fans in the country,” he said. “I like the way they are passionate (about their team). The atmosphere was great today (on Sunday).”

de Jongh who hasn’t lost a match since taking over at Highlanders in September was impressed by his team’s performance on Sunday.

“We deserve to be in the final. It doesn’t matter that we didn’t play that good because what we wanted was to be in the final. We scored at the right time, at the perfect time,” he added.
