Warriors aim for win in final World Cup qualifier against Lesotho
The Warriors are determined to end their 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers with a win when they face Lesotho in Polokwane this Monday. Despite five draws from nine matches, Zimbabwe is still chasing that elusive victory, sitting at the bottom of Group C with just five points.
The team showed promise in their recent match against South Africa, earning a hard-fought draw that boosted morale. Head coach Michael Nees is eager for a strong finish, not just to boost confidence, but to send a clear message ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco later this year.
Lesotho, who beat Zimbabwe 2-0 earlier in the campaign, will be hungry for a rare double. The Warriors will need to tighten their defense while sharpening their attack, with players like Tawanda Chirewa and Marvelous Nakamba key to the team’s success. It’s all about turning those draws into a decisive win, proving Zimbabwe’s football spirit is alive and well.
