The Zimbabwe national soccer team, the Warriors crashed to a 1-nil defeat to Zambia in their opening Group D encounter at the ongoing CHAN finals in Rwanda.

The Warriors started well, with Knox Mutizwa, Francesco Zekumbawire and Edmore Chirambadare missing a host of chances before Zambian striker, Isaac Chansa punished them with a 57th minute strike that eventually sealed the victory for Chipolopolo.
