THE Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) has suspended referee Rusununguko Mutero from officiating in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League for six match days – covering matchday 24 to matchday 29 of the 2025 season.

The ban comes after Mutero’s performance in the Green Fuel FC vs FC Platinum clash on 26 July 2025 at Green Fuel Arena was reviewed by the Match Commissioner, who reported that his officiating fell below required standards, breaching paragraph 21 of the Referees’ Code of Conduct.

ZIFA says the move is part of its ongoing efforts to ensure fairness, professionalism, and integrity in Zimbabwean football.

The association will continue monitoring match officials to maintain high refereeing standards across all competitions.
