Unity Cup: Zimbabwe ready for Super Eagles showdown – Munetsi

Zimbabwe midfielder Marshall Munetsi says the Warriors can’t wait to test their might against the Super Eagles.

Kaitano Tembo’s side will face the three-time African champions in the semi-final of the Unity Cup at the Valley next week Tuesday.

The experienced playmaker linked up with his teammates in Birmingham on Friday as they begin preparations for the friendly invitational tournament.

Munetsi said the competition will help the Warriors prepare for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers coming up later in the year.

“We have some big games coming up, the first one is against Nigeria, which everyone is looking forward to,” Munetsi told the Warriors media.

“We have some new guys coming in, some fresh faces. It’s a good opportunity for us to know each other. Obviously, these two games are important but the one we are looking forward to is the AFCON qualifiers that are coming up.”
