Tymo Machope: Zimbabwean star striker accused of faking injury to be with girlfriend
Zimbabwean striker Tymo Machope has divided opinions after allegedly faking an injury to spend time with his girlfriend.
The farm-worker-turned-footballer who plays for Scotland FC and the Zimbabwean national team, was absent during Scotland FC’s recent 1:1 draw against Highlanders, with an injury noted as the reason.
According to graphic.com.gh, internal medical assessments conducted by the club reportedly found no signs of any physical issues with Machope, leaving both fans and club officials baffled.
Scotland FC has benched the player in reaction, stirring social media chatter. While some users are amused by the story, others have called for a strict punitive action by the football club to encourage discipline.
