Egypt 1 Zimbabwe 0. Well done Warriors, there was some flashes of brilliance from our goalkeeper Sibanda, Lunga & Karuru. We were too cautious against an Egyptian team playing below. After their goal from Musona mistake, we should have changed to offensive & attacking play #AFCON

Well played by Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 Warriors – 🎶vakomana vekwedu vanotamba kufanana neshumba🎶. A very good performance despite that one moment towards the end of the 1st half against a top host nation. Aluta continua to the next match #EGYZIM #Afcon2019 #Afcon19 @online_zifa @AFCON_2019 pic.twitter.com/rBXXRL6ctP

You will find some Zimbabwean Dimwits who wanted their Liverpool player to score #AFCON2019! This Villager Lunga Neutralized him pic.twitter.com/k4uvywmYiB

We could have gotten a positive result out of this game had the Warriors not been told to play for @edmnangagwa by that clown called Kazembe Kazembe, or is it Kanzimbe Kanzimbe. Zimbabweans don't want anything to do with ED, the Warriors aren't exceptions.

#AfricanLivesMatter The warriors with less than 500 supporters in the stadium as compared to at least 50,000 Egyptians …..And a star-studded Egyptian team ..showed character . They were let down by poor finishing .BUT their heads are certainly held up very high! Well done&sorry
