PSL mourns Maroto

LOCAL football clubs will observe a minute of silence before their weekend Castle Lager Premier Soccer League matches in honour of the legendary Warriors, Dynamos and Gunners striker Norman Maroto, who died in early yesterday after a short illness.

Maroto died at age 40 and was the last striker to score more than 20 league goals in a season while playing for Gunners.

Log-leaders FC Platinum are among a host of Premier Soccer League clubs to send condolence messages to Maroto’s family and the football fraternity as they head to Gweru, where they clash with TelOne at Bata tomorrow.
