Their battle for survival continues on Saturday with a seemingly winnable away fixture against bottom-of-the-table Kwekwe United.
Kaindu’s men head into the crucial clash with a glimmer of hope after a run of three consecutive wins, two of which were hard-fought penalty shootout victories in the Chibuku Super Cup.
The latest triumph saw them come from behind against Simba Bhora last week to draw 1-1 before securing the win on penalties.
Appointed just a few weeks ago with the sole mandate to keep the club in the top flight, Kaindu, a practicing pastor, is unfazed by the monumental task ahead.
He insists his faith will be the guiding “It’s not my responsibility alone [to save Dynamos], but most of the time everything goes down to the coach,” Kaindu said. “I’m a man of faith and I believe and I trust in God.
Slowly, we are seeing a bit of life.
We only hope that we don’t get carried away. ” The former Highlanders coach has been encouraged by his team’s recent performances in the two Chibuku Super Cup games against Yadah and Simba Bhora that preceded a 1-0 win over title-chasing MWOS.
While he wished the Chibuku Super Cup victories had been league matches to help their standings, he acknowledges that winning the domestic Cup could still offer a significant prize — a “He qualifies the unqualified.
From the performance that I’ve seen, I’ve seen a lot of quality, a lot of potential.
What we need to do going forward is to just give the players confidence to believe in themselves that we can do it.
If we can beat a team like Simba Bhora that has been consistent, it shows that we’ve got the pedigree to fight. ” He also pointed to another major positive from their recent cup win – the team’s ability to score a goal during regulation time. “For us to get a goal, it brings a lot of excitement in the team,” he said. “We haven’t been celebrating for quite some time, and I have told the players that if we score, let’s celebrate our goal hard. ” After the Kwekwe trip, Dynamos host GreenFuel before playing title-contender Scottland.
As Dynamos prepare for their make-or-break run of games, their new coach is banking on more than just training and tactics.
For Kaindu, the team’s fight for survival is as much spiritual as it is a sporting one.
