Scottland FC dismisses head coach Norman Mapeza after the club’s elimination from the CAF Champions League. Multiple outlets report the departure follows a loss and the team’s exit from the competition, described as occurring on Friday following defeat to Petro de Luanda.
Context and process details vary by source. NewZimbabwe and Zimbabwe Independent both say the club and Mapeza part ways shortly after the elimination, with NewZimbabwe adding that Mapeza is served with a dismissal letter on Sunday afternoon after a meeting with the executive. The Zimbabwe Independent piece frames it as the club “parted ways” with Mapeza, while The South African similarly describes the outcome as a sacking after the Champions League exit. The Herald presents the decision as “breaking” and ties it directly to the defeat that produced the elimination.
