Tadious Manyepo in BLANTYRE, Malawi
will start the same way they have deployed throughout the tournament when they face South Africa’s University of Western Cape at Mpira Stadium this afternoon.
They need to avoid defeat to sail through to the last four of the CAF Women’s Champions League COSAFA qualifiers.
If the students manage to avoid defeat, they will finish at the top of their group.
The students can even seal their semi-final place before their 3pm match if Zambia’s Green Buffaloes fail to beat FC Ongos of Namibia by at least four goals.
But ‘Vagoni Vebasa’, as they are known, are not looking into that with coach Lazarus Magaya trusting the same first 11 that won the first two Group A games with the task to mute the South Africans.
Veteran goalkeeper Lindiwe Magwede, who was phenomenal in Herentals Queens’ 1-0 win over Green Buffaloes on Saturday, will guard the posts for the Zimbabweans, with captain Talent Mukwanda and the effective Egness Tumbare twinning at centre-back.
