March 2025 News Highlights on Zululand Daily News
March 2025 wasn’t dull for sports fans and local news followers in Zululand. Major stories hit the headlines, from basketball injuries to surprising football victories, keeping readers in the loop on everything that mattered. Here’s what got people talking this month.
Biggest shocker? Stephen Curry sidelined again. If you've been following NBA news, you know how much the Golden State Warriors depend on Curry. In late March, he missed their clash with the Atlanta Hawks because of a left pelvic contusion—his 11th missed game this season, which is a lot for a star player. The MRI brought a sigh of relief: no major damage, but it means the Warriors had to face a six-game road trip without their most reliable shooter. Fans held their breath wondering if the turnovers would keep piling up. Even so, the team pulled together, and Jimmy Butler stepped up with solid performances. For anyone tracking Curry’s status, this was headline news and had major playoff implications.
Football had its own drama. AS Roma kept their fans cheering with a serious winning streak in Serie A. They were eyeing a sixth straight victory with their next match against Cagliari at home. Roma’s defense, led by Mats Hummels, clicked into gear, while striker Artem Dovbyk remained a constant threat up front. On the flip side, Cagliari struggled with injuries and away form. Local betting conversations buzzed with predictions for this matchup, and it was clear Roma had the upper hand. If you made a friendly wager on this one, you probably had Roma in your corner.
English Premier League action also delivered a nail-biter, especially for Arsenal and West Ham fans tuning in from Zululand. West Ham bagged a gritty win over Arsenal, thanks to a precise header from Jarrod Bowen. The match heated up when Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly got sent off, leaving his side with ten men—a tough mountain to climb. Arsenal thought they equalized, but a goal was called off, letting West Ham snatch crucial points that might keep them out of relegation trouble. For Arsenal supporters, it was a tough result that dented title hopes.
Sports stories dominated the conversation, but what made them stand out was the real, on-the-ground impact. Injuries, comeback wins, and tense finishes—these are the things fans remember. March 2025 proved that every match, miss, or mistake could change a season. If you missed out, Zululand Daily News had you covered. Check back for more updates, match reports, and fresh takes—because big moments can happen at any time, and we don’t want you to miss them.
