Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 79378, member: 636"] Zimbabwe's national team just took a hit right before the Africa Cup of Nations kicks off. Reading FC midfielder Andy Rinomhota pulled out of the squad, citing an urgent family matter that needs his full attention. He announced the withdrawal a day before their opening match against Egypt. Coach Mario Marinica isn't calling up a replacement, so the midfield will have to manage without him. The remaining options include Marvelous Nakamba, Jonah Fabisch, Prosper Padera, Tawanda Chirewa, and Knowledge Musona. The national football association confirmed his exit. Rinomhota's statement said he was gutted to miss the tournament but needed to deal with the personal issue, requesting privacy for his family. [/QUOTE]
