ZIFA Announces Mutasa, Gumbo Replacements

ZIFA Vice President, Gift Banda today announced the replacement of Warriors assistants; Rahman Gumbo and Lloyd Mutasa, with Bongani Mafu and Tonderayi Ndiraya, who have been tasked with leading the Zimbabwe under-23 national soccer team.

Sunday Chidzambwa remains head coach but Gumbo and Mutasa were dismissed with Mafu and Ndiraya being brought in as their replacements. Banda defended the decision to dimiss Gumbo and Mutasa given that Zimbabwe is just a game away from 2019 AFCON qualification. Banda said the Warriors who require just a point in their final encounter against Congo Brazzaville need to do the business.

Egypt is now set to host AFCON 2019 that was initially scheduled for Cameroon.
