Zimbabwe Warrior’s striker Tawanda Maswanhise’s equaliser against South Africa in the Warriors’ final AFCON Group B match on Monday was voted Move of the Day by CAF.

Maswanhise drove past three defenders before calmly finishing past goalkeeper Ronwen Williams to level matters in the 19th minute. It was his first-ever goal at an AFCON tournament, having started on the bench in the previous two Group B matches.

He was also heavily involved in the Warriors’ second goal, which resulted in an own goal by Aubrey Modiba.

Despite Maswanhise’s heroics, the match ended in favour of South Africa, who joined Egypt in qualifying for the Round of 16, while Zimbabwe finished bottom of the group. Angola finished third with two points following their goalless draw against Egypt.
