Knowledge Musona makes an exciting comeback to Zimbabwe soccer at age 35. Coach Michael Nees finally fulfilled his wish by bringing the retired striker back into the Warriors lineup. Musona stepped away from international play in 2022 but returns with an impressive record of 24 goals across 49 national team appearances. The team must face upcoming World Cup qualifying matches without their regular captain, Marvelous Nakamba because he suffered an injury.
Zimbabwe plays against Benin first on March 20 at a stadium in Durban. Fans wanting to attend that match need to pay R50 for tickets, with kickoff scheduled for 6 p.m. Just four days later, the Warriors travel to Uyo for their second match against Nigeria on March 24. These games represent crucial opportunities for Zimbabwe to advance through the World Cup qualification process with their strengthened roster.
The goalkeeper positions include Washington Arubi from Marumo Gallants, Marley Tavaziva representing Brentford, and Martin Mapisa, who plays for MWOS FC. The defense features Jordan Zemura from Udinese, Divine Lunga from Sundowns, Gerald Takwara, who plays for Al Minaa SC, Munashe Garananga from FC Copenhagen, plus Isheanesu Mauchi, Peter Muduhwa, Godknows Murwira, and Emmanuel Jalai from various clubs.
The midfield contains Marshall Munetsi from Wolves, Andy Rinomhota playing for Cardiff City, the injured Marvelous Nakamba from Luton Town, and Tawanda Chirewa representing Huddersfield. For attacking positions, Zimbabwe counts on Knowledge Musona from Al-Okhdood alongside Prince Dube from Young Africans, Tawanda Maswanhise from Motherwell, Terrence Dzvukamanja playing for Supersport United, plus Tymon Machope and Walter Musona, both representing Scottland FC as forward options for these important qualification matches.
