The Zimbabwe national football team, the Warriors, has returned home from Morocco following their participation in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The team touched down at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport after exiting the tournament at the group stage. Despite failing to progress, following a narrow 3–2 defeat to South Africa and finishing bottom of Group B with 1 point, the Warriors showed determination and flashes of quality football during the competition.
They were welcomed by family members, supporters, and ZIFA officials, with many fans applauding the team’s effort.
Coach Marian Marinica said the tournament offered valuable lessons and stressed the need to invest in youth development and better training facilities. He remained confident that the experience at the tournament will strengthen the team ahead of future competitions.
