Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 27716, member: 2262"] Marshall Munetsi made history Saturday when he scored for the Wolves against Everton. The Zimbabwean talent found the net after 40 minutes, tying the game before coaches replaced him at halftime. His impressive goal marked a huge achievement - no player from Zimbabwe had scored in the English Premier League since 2011. Benjani Mwaruwari last did it thirteen years ago when he played for Blackburn Rovers. Several other Zimbabwean athletes missed games because of health problems. Cardiff City's Andy Rinomhota couldn't play due to injury troubles. Marvelous Nakamba from Luton Town also sat out with medical issues. They joined Plymouth defender Brendan Galloway who already existed on the injured list. These absences limited Zimbabwean representation across English football competitions this weekend. Tawanda Chirewa started and played almost an hour for Huddersfield against Bristol City in League One before coaches pulled him off. His team lost nothing despite his efforts on the field. Reading FC brought Tivonge Rushesha into their match late during a one-on-one draw with Crawley Town. Tendayi Darikwa defended Lincoln City against Birmingham, but his team fell by a single goal. Belgian team KV Mechelen won without using Bill Antonio, who stayed on the bench throughout their victory against Charleroi. Munashe Garan'anga watched from the sidelines as Copenhagen tied Sønderjyske one-one. Jordan Zemura represents Zimbabwe on Monday night when Udinese faces Lazio in Italian Serie A action. He remains the final Zimbabwean scheduled to play during this round of European league matches. [/QUOTE]
