2026 WCQ: Musona Confident as Zimbabwe Eyes Shock Win Over Super Eagles

Zimbabwe’s very own Knowledge Musona is feeling super pumped ahead of the Warriors’ crucial World Cup qualifiers. And guess what? He’s got his sights set on taking down the mighty Super Eagles of Nigeria in their backyard!

Before heading to Uyo for that high-stakes battle, Zimbabwe will first square off against the Cheetahs of Benin Republic at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban today. Musona knows that every point counts, and grabbing a win here is the first step toward shaking up Group C.

“In football, anything can happen,” Musona said in a chat with NewsDay. “The main goal right now is to get three points against Benin before focusing on Nigeria.”

The Warriors might be sitting at the bottom of Group C with just two points from four matches, but Musona isn’t sweating it. He believes his team has what it takes to bounce back in style. The Al-Okhdood forward is confident that Zimbabwe can turn things around and make a real statement.

“With the quality we have in this squad, I truly believe we can grab maximum points,” he said. “It’s all about putting in the hard work both in training and on matchdays.”

Now, let’s talk about the real showdown, the clash against Nigeria at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium next Tuesday. The Super Eagles are no easy team to beat, especially at home. But Musona? He’s not backing down. He’s ready to bring the heat and shock the football world.

With confidence soaring, the Warriors are gearing up to show they belong in the big leagues. Can they pull off a stunning upset? Musona certainly thinks so, and fans are here for it!

It’s a do-or-die moment for Zimbabwe in this 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign. A victory over Nigeria would shake up the standings and put the Warriors right back in the mix. One thing’s for sure: Musona and his squad are bringing their A-game.
