“The Warriors will face Sierra Leone in Morocco on 24 September before hosting DR Congo in Harare on 28 September.

“Go well, Thando!”

The post has triggered a lot of feedback among Warriors and AmaZulu fans.

When he was in Zimbabwe, Thando Ngweya scored 8 goals in 7 games at FC Platinum in 2025 before Amazulu came in July 2025 to get him. He was bought in the mid-season of the Zimbabwe PSL and could have become the ZPSL top goalscorer if he did not leave mid-season. – David David
