HARARE — Football fans at Heart Stadium witnessed a poignant tribute on Friday afternoon as Yadah FC and Ngezi Platinum Stars observed a moment of silence in honour of the late Tendai Ndoro, a former Warriors forward whose passing has deeply saddened the Zimbabwean football community.

The solemn gesture took place just before kickoff of the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League Matchday 26 fixture, in line with a directive from the Premier Soccer League (PSL). Earlier in the week, the PSL had announced that all teams participating in Matchday 26 would pause to remember Ndoro, recognizing his contributions to the sport and the joy he brought to fans throughout his career.

“This gesture is a tribute to Ndoro’s contribution to Zimbabwean football, where he distinguished himself as a talented player who entertained fans during his career,” read the PSL’s official statement. “The PSL extends its heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and the entire football community. May his soul rest in peace.”

Players from both sides stood in silence as the stadium fell quiet, with fans joining in the moment of reflection. The tribute was widely acknowledged by officials and supporters alike, underscoring the impact Ndoro had on the game and the legacy he leaves behind. 

Following the tribute, the match proceeded with high intensity, culminating in a 3–2 victory for Ngezi Platinum Stars. Despite the competitive spirit on the pitch, the atmosphere remained respectful, with the memory of Ndoro casting a reflective tone over the afternoon’s proceedings.

Ndoro, remembered for his flair and goal-scoring prowess, played for several clubs locally and abroad, and was a key figure in the national team setup during his prime. His death has prompted an outpouring of grief and remembrance across Zimbabwe’s football circles.

The PSL’s coordinated tribute across all fixtures served as a powerful reminder of the unity and respect within the football fraternity, and the enduring legacy of one of its brightest stars.
