Scottland FC staged an impressive comeback to defeat Agama 2-1 in an entertaining Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League match on 13 May 2026. The result keeps Scottland in contention for a top-half finish, while Agama remain in the relegation zone.

Match Overview

Agama started brightly and took the lead in the 22nd minute through a well-taken strike by forward Tafadzwa Gwarada, who converted a cross from the left wing. The home side looked comfortable for much of the first half, with their aggressive pressing causing problems for Scottland’s defense.

Scottland equalized just before halftime, however, when midfielder Brian Mhlanga unleashed a powerful shot from outside the box that deflected past the Agama goalkeeper. The goal gave the visitors momentum entering the break.
