Coach Sunday Chindzabwa

Terrence Mawawa|Vastly experienced National team coach Sunday Chidzambwa is not worried about a spate of injuries in his camp.

The Warriors have a date with Congo in the 2019 AFCON Qualifier on Sunday.

Midfielder Marvelous Nakamba, defender Costa Nhamoinesu, Ovidy Karuru and Tinotenda Chibharo have been ruled out of the game. Khama Billiat is also nursing an injury and will have to pass a fitness test to travel to Brazzaville.

However the squad has been boosted by the availability of Nyasha Mushekwi. ZIFA had announced last week that the Chinese based striker was not available for the encounter after picking a knock.

“I think we have some replacements for those who are injured and they are going to cope,” said Chidzambwa.

“They (Congo) are one of the strongest sides in Africa, so we expect a tough encounter. We only hope to work hard and bring home a good result.”

Zimbabwe currently lead Group G with three points while Congo are in third position.
