Tricky tie for Mighty Warriors

Ellina Mhlanga Sports Reporter
MIGHTY Warriors coach Rosemary Mugadza has conceded they will have a tough task when they host the Black Queens of Ghana next week in Harare in the All-Africa Games qualifiers return leg.

Zimbabwe suffered a 1-2 defeat in Accra, but there is hope the Mighty Warriors will overturn that deficit on April 12.

“We have a tough task ahead of us because we have only 90 minutes to qualify for Congo Brazzaville,” Mugadza said. “So, we need to keep our heads high and hope our players continue to work as a team and push each other like what they did in Ghana, especially in the second half.

Mugadza retained most of the players who travelled to Ghana, with only striker Rufaro Machingura being the notable absentee as she is sick.

“This week we are particularly working on their fitness levels, then next week we will be doing more of the practical work,” said Mugadza.
