Highlanders coach Pieter De Jongh has spoken about his behaviour following his team’s loss to Dynamos in the Chibuku Super Cup semifinal at Rufaro Stadium on Sunday.
Bosso were beaten 5–3 on penalties after the match had ended 1–1 in regulation time.
The defeat appeared to frustrate De Jongh, who had accused the authorities of favouring Dynamos before storming out of the press room.
In a statement posted on his X account, the Dutchman said:
“Football must always be about fair play and respect that’s what defines the beautiful game.
“My post-match comments after the Chibuku Cup semi-final were never meant to disrespect the PSL, referees or Dynamos.
“I spoke out of passion for the game and fairness – values I will always stand for. I fully respect the League and match officials and remain focused on helping Highlanders FC finish the season strong.”
