National football team is likely to have to play all its home matches in SA

Zimbabwe has no stadium fit to host international football matches and might be forced to play all its home football matches in SA.

These stars will, however, not get the opportunity to play for their country at home after the Confederation of African Football this week condemned all the country’s stadiums as unfit to host any games. Officials at Zifa said the most plausible option for Zimbabwe was to host its international matches in SA.

Sports broadcaster Steve Vickers said the stadium ban was “embarrassing and will be costly for Zimbabwe, but it comes as a result of inaction by the authorities”.

CAF bars Zimbabwe from hosting international matchesZimbabwe may have to find a 'home' away from home when they kick-off their World Cup qualifiers after being barred from hosting international matches. Zimbabwe should be demoted from being a country to be a province! This is a seriously embarrassing country. Lots of educated people but no wisdom or progress!! They were asking for help and at the same time my thoughts was like: 'So where did all those CIT robbery monies went to?'. I'm not speculating but this is karma. Its evident that God exist and will foresee karma to those who do wrong to others. One way or another.
