We’re ready to fight for the badge: Nakamba

 WARRIORS captain Marvelous Nakamba made a final rallying cry before boarding the flight for the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) finals in Morocco, where he emphasised a spirit of unity and defiance despite a preparation period marred by injury heartbreaks and selection controversies. 

The Zimbabwe national football team departed for Morocco with a singular, historic mission to break the jinx and progress to the knockout stages of the Afcon for the first time in the nation’s history. 

The 2025 Afcon edition kicks off this Sunday, December 21, when hosts Morocco take on Comoros.
