Sakunda funds VAR system at National Sports Stadium

Sakunda Holdings pledged to fund the installation of a Video Assistant Referee system at the National Sports Stadium before year-end. NewZimbabwe.com reported VAR is used in soccer to review clear errors during matches. The oil company's donation comes amid controversy over Zimbabwe's failure to meet CAF stadium standards, which has forced national team matches abroad. The government has struggled to upgrade facilities due to budget constraints. The horizon now sees the VAR installation as a stopgap measure that does not address the stadium's deeper infrastructure deficits, including floodlights and seating capacity.
