Excitement is building as the draw for the 2025 Chibuku Super Cup takes place this afternoon, marking the beginning of Zimbabwe’s premier knockout football competition. Clubs, fans, and officials alike will be watching closely as the path to glory — and continental football — is mapped out.
The Chibuku Super Cup, proudly sponsored by Chibuku, is more than just a tournament; it is Zimbabwe’s ticket into the CAF Confederation Cup. The team that lifts the trophy not only earns silverware but also secures the opportunity to represent the nation on the African stage.
Last year’s edition gave us a memorable finale, with Dynamos and Ngezi Platinum Stars clashing in a tightly contested final. After a draw in regulation time, Dynamos triumphed via a penalty shootout and booked their place in the CAF Confederation Cup. Unfortunately, financial constraints saw them withdraw from the continental competition earlier this year, highlighting the challenges local clubs continue to face off the pitch.
This afternoon’s draw will reveal which teams will square off in the opening rounds, and given the competitive nature of this year’s Castle Lager Premier Soccer League, the 2025 edition promises to be one of the most hotly contested yet. With several in-form teams and emerging stars in the mix, fans can expect drama, upsets, and brilliant football moments.
As the tournament kicks off, many are hopeful that greater corporate support will follow Chibuku’s example, helping Zimbabwean football grow on and off the field.
