Zimbabwe head coach, Michael Nees, has charged his players to put up a good fight against the Super Eagles.

The Warriors will take on the three-time African champions in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying matchday six encounter on Tuesday.

The encounter will hold at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo.

Zimbabwe, which occupies bottom spot in Group C with three points from five games, are still searching for their first win in the qualifiers.

They held the Cheetahs of Benin Republic to a 2-2 draw at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, Durban on Thursday.

Nees declared that his team will keep fighting until the end.

“Nobody can predict anything. As a sportsperson, you have to fight until the end because everybody wants a fair competition,” Nees' said ahead of the game.

“That's number one. If you don't do that, you shouldn't play football. Second, the group is not decided yet. There's still 15 points to play for and we must take every game seriously.”
