Touching base on the game approach against Zimbabwe,Shipanga alluded that
“ We are taking the competition one stage at a time and in order to qualify for the next round,tomorrow’s match against Zimbabwe is definitively a must-win.This will give us a bit of leverage over some teams in the group and it will be a boost for us to go all out in our last match against Lesotho. The game plan is attacking and getting as many goals as possible”
