Zimbabwe interim head coach Kaitano Tembo is looking forward to his side’s Unity Cup clash with the Super Eagles of Nigeria, DAILY POST reports.
The Warriors will face the defending champions in the semi-final of the friendly invitational tournament at the Valley, home ground of Sky Bet Championship club, Charlton Athletic on Tuesday, May 26.
The winner of the tie will face Jamaica or India in the final.
Tembo reckoned the Super Eagles are a top quality side, and he can’t wait to flex muscles with the three-time African champions.
“Nigeria is a top side with quality players, so we respect them. But at the same time, we believe in our squad. Preparation will be key — organisation, discipline and making sure the players understand their roles.It’s an opportunity for us to compete and showcase our strength,” the gaffer told the Zimbabwe Football Association official website.
DAILY POST reports that Zimbabwe faced the Super Eagles twice during the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with both matches ending in draws.
